Banking Transactions in Light of the Sixth Directive of the AML

Summary/Abstract: On 20 July 2021, the European Commission presented an ambitious package of legislative proposals to strengthen the EU‘s anti-money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) rules. The package includes not only a proposal for the creation of a new EU anti-money laundering body, but above all the adoption of new legislation, which should simultaneously contain directly applicable rules, including in the areas of client due diligence and beneficial ownership. The legislative package also includes a proposal for a new (sixth) directive, which will replace the previous directive 2015/849/EU. The newly proposed directive presents new mechanisms for Member States to put in place to prevent the use of the financial system for money laundering or terrorist financing. The following article is devoted to the mechanisms of the proposed directive and their influence on banking transactions.
