AMLR & AMLA Update: Key Developments & Focus for 2026 & Beyond

Introduction

The EU’s new Anti-Money Laundering Regulation (AMLR) and the establishment of the Anti-Money Laundering Authority (AMLA), present significant and ongoing changes to the AML/CFT regulatory environment in the EU. In the EU, AMLA is in the process of preparing RTS and ITS to support the implementation of the AMLR and is engaging with national supervisory authorities across the EU to gather data on obligated entities, in preparation for the selection of entities for direct supervision by AMLA.

This webinar is designed for financial services firms across Europe and will help you understand recent and upcoming developments, key areas of focus and what these will mean in practice for obliged entities including new supervisory expectations, RTS, ITS technical standards and practice steps for compliance. For UK firms with EU clients, cross-border operations or EU counterparties, it highlights the impact of these developments on your UK business and compliance obligations, helping you stay aligned with evolving EU requirements.
