Personal data (PDPL)
The Personal Data Protection Law, overseen by SDAIA, has been enforced since September 2024. In October 2026 SDAIA opened controller registration to overseas organisations. We map your data flows, cross-border transfers and records, and align them with the PDPL and its regulations.
Regulatory change
Saudi rules moved quickly in 2026: AML Law amendments in April, a new AML Implementing Regulation, open banking licensing and a CMA capital consultation. We track what changes and tell you what it means for your controls.
Training
- AML/CFT training for staff, management and board, in Arabic and English
- Role-specific modules for onboarding, operations and customer support
- Records that evidence training to an examiner
