Tuesday 22 February 2022: <\/em>The Mauritius Bankers Association (MBA) has taken cognizance of Mauritius\u2019s forthcoming exit from the European Union\u2019s list of High-risk third countries, as published in the Official Journal of the European Union<\/a> on 21 February 2022.<\/p>

As per Article 4 of the Regulation, \u201cThis Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union<\/em>,\u201d <\/em>i.e., 13 March 2022.<\/p>
