Summary What does Article 18 of the RTS on group-wide minimum requirements and additional measures for third-country subsidiaries and branches say?
This is an unusually brief article with a single, clear purpose: it repeals the predecessor legislation, Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/758.
It acts as the formal legal mechanism that removes the old rules from the statute book, making way for the new framework established by this Regulation.
The repeal is not immediate but is tied to a specific future date, aligning the sunset of the old rules with the broader implementation timeline of this Regulation.
Important points:
- Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/758 is repealed as of 10 July 2027.
- This article is the direct legal bridge between the old AML/CFT group-wide framework and the new one established by this Regulation.
- No action is required from obliged entities under this article specifically — the repeal operates automatically by law on the specified date.
