Artikel 69 Riktlinjer för samarbete vid bekämpning av penningtvätt och finansiering av terrorism

Summary What does Article 69 of the Sixth anti-money laundering (AML 6) directive say?

This article tasks AMLA with issuing guidelines on inter-authority cooperation in the AML/CFT space.

It sits within the broader cooperation framework of the Directive and serves as a practical implementation tool, directing AMLA to work alongside a wide range of EU bodies — including the ECB, the European Supervisory Authorities, Europol, Eurojust, and EPPO — to produce guidance.

The guidelines cover two areas: how competent authorities should cooperate with each other and with central register entities to prevent money laundering and terrorist financing, and how authorities supervising obliged entities under other EU legal acts should factor AML/CFT concerns into their work under those acts.

Important points:

AMLA is required to issue the guidelines by 10 July 2029, in cooperation with the ECB, European Supervisory Authorities, Europol, Eurojust, and EPPO.
The guidelines cover cooperation between competent authorities, including FIUs, supervisory authorities, and entities in charge of central registers.
A second strand of guidance addresses how authorities overseeing obliged entities under other Union legal acts must integrate AML/CFT considerations into their duties under those acts.
