Article 89 Relation to Directive (EU) 2015/849
Summary What does Article 89 of the Anti-money laundering regulation (AMLR) say?
This is a short transitional interpretation article that handles the replacement of the previous anti-money laundering directive.
It clarifies that wherever the old Directive (EU) 2015/849 is referenced in other legal texts, those references should now be understood as pointing to this Regulation and to Directive (EU) 2024/1640.
A correlation table in Annex VI is provided to guide readers in mapping the old provisions to the new ones.
Important points:
- Any reference to Directive (EU) 2015/849 found elsewhere in law is to be read as a reference to this Regulation and Directive (EU) 2024/1640.
- Use the correlation table in Annex VI to identify which provisions of the old directive correspond to the new framework.
- This article ensures legal continuity across the transition from the old directive to the new AML legislative package.
