Degroof Petercam formally rejects any accusation of money laundering - update

Friday, April 26, 2019 — The National Bank of Belgium carried out an audit at Degroof Petercam on its procedures for internal control with regard to the prevention of money laundering, as it regularly does at banking institutions under its control. This audit led to recommendations, which Degroof Petercam is implementing in close consultation with its regulators.
