    "content": "Finally, Part V of the Bill speaks to regulatory authorities being empowered to vet shareholders and senior officers of virtual assets service providers. Regulatory authorities will also be empowered to conduct on-site and off-site inspections and enforce anti-money laundering and financing of terrorism laws. This is because, as I said, every Tom, Dick and Harry walks into Kenya, opens an office at a street corner, collects money from people and disappears. Nobody vets shareholders or owners of virtual assets service providers. It will now be a requirement for licensing regulatory authorities to vet virtual assets service providers to know shareholders and senior officers. They will also conduct on-site and off- site inspections to stem terrorism financing and money laundering. Like all other financial assets, this is one area that could largely be abused by those who finance terrorism or engage in money laundering. Can I say I second?"
