Meetup on (R)evolution of the AML Landscape

Upcoming changes of the AML regulatory landscape

The fight against financial crime is entering a new era. With the adoption of the Sixth Anti-Money Laundering Directive (6AMLD), the Anti-Money Laundering Regulation (AMLR), and the AML Authority Regulation on May 31, 2024, the EU has completed its comprehensive AML/CFT package.

This new framework significantly strengthens the regulatory landscape, introducing enhanced due diligence requirements, greater transparency in beneficial ownership, and reinforced supervision. The AML package also establishes a new AML Authority to ensure more consistent enforcement across Member States.

This event will provide an in-depth analysis of the AML package’s key provisions and explore its implications from multiple perspectives, including those of financial institutions, fintech companies, and regulatory authorities. Will these reforms mark a fundamental shift in AML compliance, or do they represent a continuation of existing policies?
Join us to gain valuable insights from industry experts and understand the practical impact of these regulatory developments.
