The Joint Committee of the three European Supervisory Authorities (EBA, EIOPA and ESMA - ESAs) launched today a public consultation on two anti-money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) Guidelines.

The documents are part of the Joint Committee’s work to establish consistent and effective, risk-based supervisory practices across the EU.
