Issues related to the application of legislation in the field of money laundering prevention in the context of the GDPR Regulation

Summary/Abstract: Since its coming into force, European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has been invoked in many cases where personal data was involved and has raised many questions if it is applicable or not in some instances. The most disputed area where the application of the Regulation (EU) 2016/679 has come to be troublesome is the European Anti-Money Laundering (AML) legal framework. The 4th AML European Directive 2015/849 (amended by the fifth one) by excellence involves the retrieval of personal data in order to fulfill the legal obligations set by law. Member states had to achieve the transposition of the Directive consequently making national laws, which are of course regarded by the general public as being inferior to a European Regulation.
