AMLA Risk Model Test Request Launched
The Authority for the Financial Markets (AFM) and the European Anti-Money Laundering Authority (AMLA) have launched a mandatory data collection exercise requiring selected financial companies to submit information for testing AMLA’s new risk assessment model. The AFM will host a second series of sector-wide roundtables in late 2026 to discuss the upcoming July 2027 implementation of revised EU anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing rules, alongside the publication of further national secondary legislation. Concurrently, AMLA will conduct public hearings on 24 March 2026 regarding draft regulatory technical standards for customer due diligence, business relationships, and administrative enforcement measures.
