AMLA Public Hearings on Draft Regulatory Technical Standards
Summary
The CSSF is raising awareness for two public hearings organized by the Authority for Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AMLA) on March 24, 2026. The hearings will cover draft Regulatory Technical Standards related to business relationships, transaction thresholds, and Customer Due Diligence.
What changed
The CSSF has issued a notice to inform relevant entities about upcoming public hearings organized by AMLA on March 24, 2026. These hearings will focus on draft Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS) concerning criteria for identifying business relationships, occasional and linked transactions, lower thresholds, and Customer Due Diligence, as mandated by Regulation (EU) 2024/1624.
Interested parties, particularly those identified as obliged entities such as credit institutions, investment firms, and crypto-asset service providers, are invited to register for these hearings. Registration is required, and places are limited. While these are public hearings to gather input on draft standards, entities should consider attending to understand the evolving regulatory landscape for anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing.
What to do next
- Review the AMLA public hearing schedule and topics.
- Register for relevant hearings if attendance is desired.
- Familiarize with draft RTS under Regulation (EU) 2024/1624.
