This proposal would amend the fourth Anti-Money Laundering Directive, which was adopted on 5 June 2015 and is due to enter into force in 2017. The terrorist attacks of late 2015 had already prompted a review of the anti-money laundering framework when, in April 2016, the Panama Papers created a renewed sense of urgency to act in a related field. As a result, the IA under review consists of two parts. Part 1 analyses the amendments brought about in the light of the terrorist attacks, whereas Part 2 addresses the Panama Papers revelations. Both parts are presented in parallel below. This IA builds on a 2013 Commission IA, which was the subject of a separate initial appraisal UR - http://www.europarl.europa.eu/RegData/etudes/BRIE/2016/587354/EPRS_BRI(2016)587354_EN.pdf ER -
