Highlights from WFDB Executive Committee
as shared by our President, Moshe Salem
|
|
The WFDB Executive Committee meeting took place in Hong Kong on Feb 25th just before the Hong Kong show. It was the annual Asian Summit and the semi-annual Executive Committee meeting. Quite a few topics were discussed at the meeting, some of the more important ones were:
- SOW (System Of Warranties) To better understand SOW, I am including a quote from WDC (World Diamond Council) website on SOW: "The System of Warranties is a voluntary system of industry self-regulation created to support and strengthen the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme. The SOW is a cornerstone of the WDC, whose goal is to serve as a global communication point regarding the UN-mandated Kimberley Process, a joint government, industry and civil society initiative to stem the flow of conflict diamonds. The System of Warranties requires that the buyers and sellers of rough diamonds, polished diamonds, and jewelry containing diamonds to include specific wording on every invoice."
It was agreed at the meeting that the WFDB, will participate in SOW, although the final wording is yet to be drafted and approved.
Another important topic that was discussed was
synthetic diamonds
.
A resolution was passed unanimously saying that Bourse members who are found to be guilty of non-disclosure/mixing of laboratory-grown diamonds in parcels of diamonds should be severely sanctioned when their case is brought before their bourse.
Members of the committee reported on the activity and state of their organizations/ bourses, I am happy to report to you that our club (DCWC) received a great deal of appreciation for its activities and strong membership. The reporting in general were that "times are challenging, yet with good and creative leadership of each bourse individually and collectively under WFDB leadership we know that we can face these challenges and continue to succeed." The next meeting will take place in Israel on June 24, 2019.
