IDOM MIDDLE EAST & ABS ANNOUNCE INTERCONTINENTAL BANK OF LEBANON AS CLIENT
AML-Reporter, DNFS & WorldCompliance’s Database All Part of the Package

BEIRUT, LEBANON, July 15, 2005 – IDOM Middle East, LLC, (www.idom-me.com), a leading provider of regulatory compliance expertise and related business automation solutions, is very pleased to announce their newest client, the Intercontinental Bank of Lebanon, headquartered in Beirut. Amerab Business Solutions sal (ABS), IDOM Middle East’s local support office, will assist the bank in implementing IDOM’s AML-Reporter and DNFS software solutions, as well as providing an offline subscription to WorldCompliance’s centralized database of global Black/Watch lists through their recently announced reseller business relationship.

“The Intercontinental Bank of Lebanon is a welcome addition to our growing distinctive client roster. The addition of both the AML-Reporter and DNFS software solutions will provide relief to the bank’s ever-increasing compliance monitoring responsibilities expected by today’s regulatory environment. Furthermore, WorldCompliance’s centralized database, designed to complement the bank’s due diligence efforts, will provide constant updated information for name filtering purposes. With these solutions in place, the bank will be on the cutting edge of compliance monitoring.” said Fakhruddin Khalil, Chairman of IDOM Middle East & ABS.

The AML-Reporter software solution is extremely efficient in the detection of suspicious activities that help prevent money laundering risk exposures within financial institutions. The DNFS software solution filters Black/Watch listed names, and when combined with WorldCompliance’s database, these solutions serve to support bank’s efforts in KYC (Know Your Customer) monitoring of potentially high-risk individuals and entities. The software solutions maintain internal audit trails that record the bank’s compliance efforts to serve bank audit requirements, as well as, expectations from regulatory authorities. In essence, AML-Reporter, DNFS, and WorldCompliance are designed to assist banks in ensuring implementation of international anti-money laundering recommendations of the MENAFATF (Middle East North Africa Financial Action Task Force), Basel Committee, and the Central Banks' local anti-money laundering regulations.

Mr. Sami Najm, Compliance Manager at the Intercontinental Bank of Lebanon said, “We feel our Compliance efforts can now reach a new level of sophistication with state of the art technology offered through ABS and IDOM.
