The Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority has published an initial set of questions and answers for supervised firms on the EU’s new anti-money laundering and counterterrorist financing framework and the EU Anti-Money Laundering Authority (AMLA). The material addresses broad, foundational issues identified partly through dialogue with the industry and is intended to provide a consolidated explanation of the changes firms should expect. The authority will expand and update the Q&A as the framework develops and further guidance is needed. The publication supports firms across the banking, payments, insurance and markets sectors as Sweden prepares for EU-aligned supervision, including revised annual anti-money laundering reporting from 2027 based on firms’ inherent risks and control environments.
