EU to roll out single anti-money laundering rulebook in 2027; banks, fintech and crypto firms face changes
The European Union will introduce a single anti-money laundering regulation, AMLR, across all member states from July 10, 2027, reshaping compliance across the financial sector. The rule will apply directly across the bloc and expand coverage beyond banks to fintech firms, payment service providers and crypto companies. It strengthens requirements for unified KYC, risk assessment and ongoing monitoring, and adds tougher expectations on documentation, traceability and auditability of decisions.
