Our summary

AMLA is a decentralised EU agency created to strengthen the fight against money laundering and terrorist financing. It coordinates national supervisors and financial intelligence units so that EU rules are applied in the same way across member states.

Its website is the place to follow new EU-level AML guidance and supervisory expectations.

How auditors use it: to stay current on EU AML expectations and to benchmark an organisation’s AML program against the direction of EU supervision.
