Sawadi Ventures FZCO invests on a proprietary basis and is not licensed or regulated by any authority. This statement sets out voluntary standards we hold ourselves to; it does not create third-party rights.
Sawadi Ventures is committed to preventing its business from being used to launder the proceeds of crime, to finance terrorism, or to breach applicable sanctions. This commitment underpins the onboarding and KYC process we apply to partners and counterparties.
Our approach
- Know your counterparty — we carry out identity verification and beneficial-ownership checks (KYC) before establishing a relationship, through our confidential onboarding and data-room process.
- Risk-based diligence — the depth of diligence reflects the risk profile of the counterparty, jurisdiction and transaction.
- Sanctions screening — counterparties are screened against applicable sanctions and watch lists; we do not transact where doing so would breach applicable sanctions.
- Ongoing vigilance — we monitor for unusual activity and keep records consistent with good practice.
- Cooperation — we cooperate with lawful requests from competent authorities.
Sawadi Ventures will never request payment to personal accounts. Report any misuse of our name, or any concern, to administration@sawadiventures.com.
