اِقْتَرَحَتْ شَبَكَةُ مُكَافَحَةِ الْجَرَائِمِ الْمَالِيَّةِ الْأَمْرِيكِيَّةُ، فِي ٢٨ أَغُسْطُسَ، قَاعِدَةً جَدِيدَةً لِفَرْعِ بَنْكِ مِصْرَ فِي الْإِمَارَاتِ.
وَإِذَا أَصْبَحَتِ الْقَاعِدَةُ نِهَائِيَّةً، فَسَتَمْنَعُ الْبُنُوكَ الْأَمْرِيكِيَّةَ مِنْ فَتْحِ حِسَابَاتٍ مُرَاسِلَةٍ لِلْفَرْعِ أَوْ إِبْقَائِهَا.
وَقَالَتْ وَزَارَةُ الْخِزَانَةِ الْأَمْرِيكِيَّةُ إِنَّ الْفَرْعَ عَالَجَ نَحْوَ ١٫٨ مِلْيَارِ دُولَارٍ لِأَكْثَرَ مِنْ مِئَةِ شَرِكَةٍ قَدْ تَكُونُ مُرْتَبِطَةً بِشَبَكَاتٍ مَالِيَّةٍ إِيرَانِيَّةٍ. وَهٰذِهِ مَعْلُومَاتٌ ذَكَرَتْهَا الْوِزَارَةُ.
وَلَمْ تَصِرِ الْقَاعِدَةُ قَرَارًا نِهَائِيًّا بَعْدُ، وَهِيَ مَفْتُوحَةٌ لِلتَّعْلِيقِ الْعَامِّ. وَأَكَّدَ الْبَنْكُ الْمَرْكَزِيُّ الْمِصْرِيُّ أَنَّ الْإِجْرَاءَ يَخُصُّ مُعَامَلَاتِ فَرْعِ الْإِمَارَاتِ بِالدُّولَارِ فَقَطْ، وَلَا يَشْمَلُ بَنْكَ مِصْرَ فِي مِصْرَ أَوْ فُرُوعَهُ الْأُخْرَى.

United States Proposes Restriction on Banque Misr UAE Branch
On August 28, the US Financial Crimes Enforcement Network proposed a new rule concerning Banque Misr’s branch in the United Arab Emirates.
If the rule becomes final, it will prevent US banks from opening or keeping correspondent accounts for the branch.
The US Treasury Department said that the branch processed about $1.8 billion for more than one hundred companies that may be connected to Iranian financial networks. This is information stated by the department.
The rule has not become a final decision yet, and it is open for public comment. Egypt’s Central Bank confirmed that the measure concerns only the UAE branch’s dollar transactions and does not include Banque Misr in Egypt or its other branches.
