Den længe ventede nye EU-hvidvaskpakke er vedtaget og træder i kraft den 1. juli 2027.

Den nugældende hvidvasklovgivning stiller allerede i dag en lang række krav til bl.a. advokater, ejendomsmæglere og finansielle institutioners forebyggelse af hvidvask og terrorfinansiering, men med denne nye hvidvaskpakke kommer der yderligere stramninger og mere ensartede regler, ligesom flere brancher bliver omfattet af lovgivningen. Herudover bliver der oprettet en ny tilsynsmyndighed og tildelt mere omfattende beføjelser for finansielle efterretningsenheder til bekæmpelse af hvidvask og terrorfinansiering.

Selvom hvidvaskpakken først træder i kraft i 2027, er det vigtigt allerede nu at forholde sig til, om og i hvilket omfang reglerne får betydning for din virksomhed.
