UAE plans new law to clamp down on non-profits’ vulnerability to dirty money

In addition, all non-profits operating in the Gulf nation are being warned about the need to conduct careful due diligence on donors and other clients, so that dirty money cannot gain a foothold in a sector that has been a cause for concern for years.
