Article 63 Cooperation with AMLA
Summary What does Article 63 of the Sixth anti-money laundering (AML 6) directive say?
This is a notably brief article that establishes a straightforward cooperation obligation.
It serves as a supporting provision that feeds into the broader supervisory architecture of the AML/CFT framework, specifically underpinning AMLA's ability to function effectively across the Union.
Rather than creating complex procedural rules, it simply ensures that the two key national-level actors — FIUs and supervisory authorities — are required to support AMLA by sharing all necessary information.
Important points:
- FIUs and supervisory authorities are required to cooperate with AMLA and provide it with all information necessary for it to carry out its duties.
- The obligation covers AMLA's duties under this Directive and under both Regulation (EU) 2024/1624 and Regulation (EU) 2024/1620.
- The scope of the information-sharing obligation is broad, covering everything AMLA needs to fulfil its functions.
