Resumo(s)
Since it first started raising the eyebrows of regulators in the 80s, prevention of ML/TF has
consumed a growing amount of supervisory resources and became subject to increasingly
detailed and burdensome regulatory frameworks. In the EU, following a string of prominent
cases of money laundering involving European institutions, the Commission proposed a
drastic overhaul of the AML/CFT framework that will reshape the supervisory architecture
and regulatory approach. The key aspects of novelty concern the creation of an EU-level
AML/CFT supervisory authority and the development of an AML/CFT Single Rulebook.
These changes were inspired by the similar process of regulatory harmonization and (partial)
transfer of supervisory tasks to the supranational level that took place in the prudential sphere
after the global financial crisis. The example drawn from the SSM and the prudential Single
Rulebook can help shed light on the strengths and areas for improvement of the
Commission’s AML Package and on its ability to address the shortcomings of the current
AML/CFT framework.
