Artikel 59 Utbyte av upplysningar om sanktionsavgifter och administrativa åtgärder

Summary What does Article 59 of the Sixth anti-money laundering (AML 6) directive say?

This article is a short but important transparency and coordination provision that directly supports the sanctions framework established in the preceding articles of this section.

It creates a dual reporting and publication mechanism: supervisors must report sanctions and administrative measures upward to AMLA, and AMLA in turn serves as a central hub by maintaining public links to each supervisor's own publications.

Where a sanctioned entity operates across multiple Member States, the relevant information must also flow laterally between supervisors.

Important points:

Supervisors are required to inform AMLA of all pecuniary sanctions and administrative measures imposed, including any appeals and their outcomes.
Where a sanction or measure concerns an entity operating in two or more Member States, that information must also be shared with the other supervisors involved.
AMLA is required to maintain a publicly accessible webpage linking to each supervisor's sanctions publications, along with the applicable publication period per Member State.

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

1. Medlemsstaterna ska säkerställa att deras tillsynsorgan och vid behov den offentliga myndighet som utövar tillsyn över självreglerande organ vid utförandet av sina tillsynsuppdrag informerar Amla om alla sanktionsavgifter som ålagts och administrativa åtgärder som tillämpats i enlighet med det här avsnittet, inbegripet eventuella överklaganden av dessa, och om resultat av detta. Sådan information ska också delas med andra tillsynsorgan när sanktionsavgifter eller administrativa åtgärder gäller en enhet som drivs i två eller fler medlemsstater.
1. Amla ska på sin webbplats underhålla länkar till varje enskild tillsynsorgans offentliggörande av sanktionsavgifter som ålagts och administrativa åtgärder som tillämpats i enlighet med artikel 58 och visa den period under vilken varje medlemsstat offentliggör sanktionsavgifter och administrativa åtgärder.
