Dubai To Host World Diamond Council AGM In October

The World Diamond Council (WDC) will hold its 13th Annual General Meeting (AGM) in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, from October 15 to 17. The meeting will be hosted by the Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC).

Among the items to be discussed are industry recommendations for the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme (KPCS) review cycle and a proposed renewal of the WDC System of Warranties.

“The WDC is going forward with its strategic plan aimed at enhancing the KPCS and encouraging diamond industry self-regulation to increase supply chain transparency,” stated acting WDC President Stephane Fischler. “I am confident that our collaborative efforts will contribute to the further development of diamond industry integrity and strengthen consumer confidence in the diamond value chain,” he added.

“This is the second time that the WDC has hosted its AGM in Dubai, one of the world’s leading market places for rough diamonds,” stated DMCC Executive Chairman Ahmed Bin Sulayem, adding, “the DMCC is delighted to see representatives of diamond bourses, banks, and diamond miners gather in an Arab country once again to discuss and tackle important topics, from supply chain integrity, to consumer confidence and demand. The WDC has been a strong support in helping grow Dubai into a diamond hub and we are privileged to host them.”
