Background Information

The 5th Anti-Money Laundering Directive, which amends the 4th Anti-Money Laundering Directive was published in the Official Journal of the European Union on 19 June 2018. The Member States must transpose this Directive by 10 January 2020. Malta is currently transposing the Directive into local legislation, which was sent out to subject persons for consultation. A new Directive complementing and reinforcing the Fourth and the Fifth Anti-Money Laundering Directives (4AMLD and 5AMLD) was adopted on 23 October 2018, which is known as the 6 AML Directive. This will need to be transposed by the Member States by the end of 2020.
