            Director Training and Evaluation
            The international environment and legislative and regulatory
            demands  remain  increasingly  complex  and challenging,
            causing us to constantly review our systems and make use of
            technology to ensure that compliance is robust, with minimal
            negative impact on our legitimate customers. In this context,
            the Group recognises its responsibility to continue to source
            training programmes for Directors that will enhance Directors’
            knowledge and improve effectiveness.

            Regarding Board Training for this fiscal, as customary, the
            Directors participated in the Anti-money Laundering (AML)
            training. Additionally, Board training was arranged on Artificial
            Intelligence in Board governance.
