The French Banking Commission issued Instruction No. 2009-07 to amend the reporting requirements for financial institutions under Instruction No. 2000-09 concerning anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing. The directive mandates the submission of standardized BLANCHIMT tables detailing TRACFIN designees, branch and subsidiary compliance status, and internal control procedures, with specific electronic signing protocols and a one-time extended deadline for 2010 submissions. It further updates the Unified Financial Reporting System (Instruction 2009-01) by incorporating these anti-money laundering tables as Annex 8.
