Article 75 Modification de la directive (UE) 2019/1937


Summary What does Article 75 of the Sixth anti-money laundering (AML 6) directive say?

This is a brief amendment article that connects the current directive to the EU's whistleblower protection framework.

It amends Directive (EU) 2019/1937 (the Whistleblowing Directive) by adding Regulation (EU) 2024/1624 — the core AML/CFT regulation — to the list of Union acts whose breaches fall within the scope of whistleblower protections.

In practical terms, this means that persons who report breaches of the AML/CFT regulation will benefit from the protections afforded under the Whistleblowing Directive.

Important points:

  • Regulation (EU) 2024/1624 is formally added to the scope of Directive (EU) 2019/1937, extending whistleblower protections to those reporting AML/CFT breaches.
  • This article amends an existing piece of EU legislation rather than creating standalone obligations.
  • The amendment ensures alignment between the AML/CFT framework and the broader EU whistleblower protection regime.
