The scale and pace of legislative change has been remarkable. And given the importance regulators and the wider public place on preventing financial crime, there is a huge amount of pressure on compliance, legal and front line staff to get the new rules right the first time round.
This is the first in a series of blogs that will take an in-depth look at the changes being made in the world of financial crime, and takes a forward look to new legislative developments.
We will also be creating a repository of useful materials - from legislation to guidelines and case law to consultations. If there are topics of particular interest that you would like to have addressed, or materials that would be useful to add to the repository, then please do let me know.
Unsurprisingly, the hottest issue over the past couple of weeks has been the new
Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing and Transfer of Funds (Information on the Payer) Regulations 2017 (2017 Regulations).
What may have slipped past is the accompanying Transposition Note, which sets out the UK legislative provisions transposing the Fourth Money Laundering Directive (4MLD) and the Funds Transfer Regulation (FTR), setting out the EU and UK intention behind a particular UK provision, and the accompanying impact assessment, which sets out the key monetised and non-monetised costs and benefits of the 2017 Regulations.
To give you a flavour of our forthcoming blogs, we have set out the key recent EU and UK developments and mapped them onto the 2017 Regulations. These developments will be on your radar because of the requirements imposed on firms or the supervisory authority.

UK
As if that was not enough, there are a number of major developments coming up in the short term and on the horizon - we will cover many of them in future blogs, as well.
