Financial Crime
AFME with its members is advocating for a robust and effective anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing (AML/CFT) regulatory framework that can be consistently applied at global, European and national levels. This is achieved by working closely with the industry experts and liaising with the relevant European/global regulators and stakeholders.
Key Priorities
Enhancing supervisory cooperation and frameworks to fight money laundering;
Fostering a culture of integrity with a focus on effective rules in the field of financial crime, enhancing regulatory dialogue;
Facilitating global regulatory convergence and cooperation to enhance international standards, regulatory dialogue, openness with other countries and supervisory cooperation.
