Money laundering and financing of terrorism threaten Europe’s security, the financial integrity of the internal market and the credibility of the European Union vis-à-vis its partners. A bold legislative package is being negotiated to mitigate these threats, align supervisory practices and harmonise requirements for the private sector. The package will lead to a complete overhaul of the European anti-money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism rules (AML/CFT).
The conference participants will work on the major issues related to the harmonisation of financial transparency rules, the detection of criminal threats related to the anonymity of crypto-assets and cooperation between competent national and European authorities on sharing information and financial intelligence.
