DMCC confirmed that Maryam Al Hashemi, Senior Director of Precious Stones and Metals at DMCC and the UAE KP Director, has been appointed Chair of the Kimberley Process (KP) Committee on Participation and Chairmanship (CPC).
The CPC is a vital body within the Kimberley Process, responsible for evaluating new participants, reviewing compliance matters, and assessing Vice-Chair candidates. Its recommendations are presented at the KP Plenary meeting, ensuring the integrity of the certification scheme. As per KP protocol, the previous year’s KP Chair assumes the role of CPC Chair the following year.
A KP veteran, Al Hashemi brings extensive expertise to the role. India will chair the KP in 2026, its third time overall, with commitments to building consumer confidence, accelerating digital traceability and advancing data-driven compliance, DMCC said.
Al Hashemi has been instrumental in positioning Dubai as the world’s leading diamond trading hub. Under her leadership, Dubai’s rough and polished diamond trade has exceeded one billion carats in rough and polished over the past five years. She also oversees the Dubai Diamond Exchange (DDE) and spearheads key industry events such as the Dubai Diamond Conference and the Dubai Precious Metals Conference.
Al Hashemi’s appointment underscores her long-standing commitment to strengthening the KP framework. Her leadership is expected to further reinforce the KP’s mission in promoting responsible diamond trade practices worldwide.
