Article 29 Coopération entre les CRF
Summary What does Article 29 of the Sixth anti-money laundering (AML 6) directive say?
This is an unusually brief article that establishes a general principle of maximum cooperation between Financial Intelligence Units (FIUs) across Member States.
It serves as a foundational commitment that underpins the more detailed cooperation and information-sharing obligations set out in the subsequent articles of this chapter, such as Articles 31 and 32.
Important points:
- Member States are required to ensure their FIUs cooperate with each other to the greatest extent possible.
- The obligation applies regardless of the organisational status of any given FIU.
- FIUs are the subject of this obligation, meaning the cooperation duty rests with them directly.
