Article 69 Orientations concernant la coopération LBC/FT


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.

Springlex's summary of the article, a reading aid, not a substitute for the legal text.

Au plus tard le 10 juillet 2029, l’ALBC, en coopération avec la BCE, les autorités de surveillance européennes, Europol, Eurojust et le Parquet européen, publient des orientations concernant:

  1. la coopération entre les autorités compétentes en vertu de la section 1 du présent chapitre, ainsi qu’avec les autorités visées à la section 2 du présent chapitre et les entités chargées des registres centraux, et qui vise à prévenir le blanchiment de capitaux et le financement du terrorisme;

  2. les procédures que les autorités compétentes pour la surveillance ou la supervision d’entités assujetties en application d’autres actes juridiques de l’Union doivent utiliser pour tenir compte de préoccupations liées au blanchiment de capitaux et au financement du terrorisme dans l’exercice de leurs fonctions au titre de ces actes juridiques de l’Union.
