Artikel 32 Meldung von Verstößen


Summary What does Article 32 of the Transfer of funds regulation (TFR) say?

This article addresses whistleblowing and breach reporting, operating on two levels simultaneously.

At the national level, it requires Member States to put in place mechanisms that encourage reporting of breaches to competent authorities.

At the firm level, it requires payment service providers and crypto-asset service providers to establish internal channels through which their employees can report breaches.

This article connects directly to the sanctions framework established in Articles 28 and 29, supporting enforcement by ensuring breaches can be surfaced both internally and to authorities.

Important points:

  • Member States are required to establish effective mechanisms for reporting breaches to competent authorities, at minimum meeting the standards set out in Article 61(2) of Directive (EU) 2015/849.
  • Establish internal procedures allowing employees to report breaches through a secure, independent, specific and anonymous channel.
  • These internal reporting channels must be proportionate to the nature and size of your organisation, and set up in cooperation with competent authorities.

Springlex's summary of the article, a reading aid, not a substitute for the legal text.

    1. Die Mitgliedstaaten richten wirksame Mechanismen ein, um die Meldung von Verstößen gegen diese Verordnung an die zuständigen Behörden zu fördern.

    2. Diese Mechanismen umfassen zumindest die in Artikel 61 Absatz 2 der Richtlinie (EU) 2015/849 genannten.

    1. Die Zahlungsdienstleister und Anbieter von Krypto-Dienstleistungen richten in Zusammenarbeit mit den zuständigen Behörden angemessene interne Verfahren ein, über die ihre Mitarbeiter oder Personen in einer vergleichbaren Position Verstöße intern über einen sicheren, unabhängigen, spezifischen und anonymen Weg melden können und der in Bezug auf die Art und die Größe des betreffenden Zahlungsdienstleisters oder Anbieters von Krypto-Dienstleistungen verhältnismäßig ist.
