European Commission Launches Infringement Cases Against 11 States

➡️ The Commission launched infringement procedures against the Member States for failing to fully notify the required transposition of the 6th Money Laundering Directive (6MLD), giving them two months to respond before possible escalation. 

➡️ The states failed to meet the July 2025 deadline to guarantee full access to beneficial ownership information of legal entities, trusts, and similar arrangements.  

✅ Firms who will be subject to new information-sharing requirements should review their processes, ensuring required information is robustly captured
