Anti-money laundering directive

In the context of countering money laundering and terrorist financing, the European Anti-Money Laundering Directive requires various professional groups to conduct customer due diligence. However, not all professional groups also have access to the tools needed for this, such as access to the UBO register to be established. This problem has been put on the political agenda. There has also been lobbying for the establishment of a Central Register of Shareholders to facilitate client due diligence.
