Ensure clear accountability for securing and monitoring digital accessibility
The Dutch Financial Markets Authority (AFM) issued its third EAA update to clarify accessibility compliance expectations and outline an upcoming sector-wide investigation.

The AFM also mandates precise non-conformity reporting through a standardized portal form, requiring detailed descriptions of affected services, impact levels, consumer reach, and concrete remediation measures.
