Welcome to the Field

The European AML landscape is changing fundamentally. With the creation of the Anti-Money Laundering Authority (AMLA) and the introduction of the new Anti-Money Laundering Regulation (AMLR), financial institutions are entering a more harmonised and outcome-driven regulatory environment. The AMLR will apply directly across the EU, while AMLA will drive greater supervisory consistency and convergence.

Financial institutions are increasingly operating within ecosystems comprising partners, platforms and data sources. This requires an integrated approach to risk management, internal control, third-party risks, operational resilience and ESG to ensure that innovation remains safe and manageable.
