The European Supervisory Authorities, including the European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA), have concluded a multilateral Memorandum of Understanding with the European Union’s Authority for Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AMLA) to structure cooperation and information exchange between the four bodies. The MoU sets out how AMLA and the ESAs will exchange information and cooperate operationally to perform their respective tasks in an efficient, effective and timely manner. It is intended to promote supervisory convergence across the EU financial sector, support cross-sectoral learning and capacity building among supervisors, and forms part of the wider cooperation framework AMLA is required to issue for the financial sector. Under Article 91 of the AMLA Regulation, AMLA was required to conclude a multilateral MoU with the ESAs by 27 June 2025 establishing how the authorities intend to cooperate in the performance of their tasks under Union law.
