  • AMLA consults on harmonised risk assessments in the non-financial sector

    AMLA

    A shared methodology across the EU: AMLA is inviting views on draft rules that will determine how supervisors in every Member State assess money laundering and terrorism financing risks of businesses and professionals in the non-financial sector. Criminal money enters the economy in many ways, often through everyday transactions, from property purchases to luxury goods, professional services, or gambling. That makes it important for businesses in the non-financial sector to recognise and address the risk of being misused for money laundering or terrorist financing. Supervisors, in turn, need to understand the levels of risk that different businesses face, so they can allocate their resources accordingly. The draft standards give them a shared methodology for assessing that risk, so similar businesses are assessed on the same terms wherever they operate.
