The EBA's exit from AML supervision marks a significant reshuffling of EU financial crime oversight. Obliged entities now face a tight deadline to align with tighter CDD thresholds under the unified AMLR ahead of July 2027. Meanwhile, enforcement actions continue across the Atlantic and Europe. Canaccord Genuity took an $80 million hit from FinCEN, MoneyGram faced French sanctions for control failures, and OFAC issued a limited exemption for Lukoil contract negotiations. Your compliance calendar just got busier.

- 1 What does EU's new centralised AML regulator mean for your CDD thresholds and reporting lines?
- 2 Why did an OTC market-maker's AML gaps cost $100m across three regulators?
- 3 Does MoneyGram's French fine signal stricter AML enforcement across remittance operators?
- 4 Does OFAC's Lukoil authorization signal a broader reset in Russia sanctions enforcement?
