Venezuela real estate sector focuses on anti-money laundering and organizational growth

The Venezuelan real estate sector is undergoing organizational and regulatory developments. The Cámara Inmobiliaria de Venezuela (CIV) and the National Office Against Organized Crime and Terrorism Financing (Oncdoft) held a working session to evaluate prevention mechanisms against money laundering, terrorism financing, and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction.

During this meeting, officials emphasized the need for an updated registry of operational real estate companies to implement risk-based approaches and enhance transaction transparency. Discussions also focused on integrating real estate brokers into Customer Due Diligence (CDD) protocols.

In the state of Barinas, the Cámara Inmobiliaria del Estado Barinas (CIEB), led by President Adriana Issa, has sworn in new working teams. These multidisciplinary groups are designed to support various vice-presidencies and manage areas such as institutional events, professional development, and social responsibility initiatives.
