Sanctions on the rise: the 6th Anti-Money Laundering Directive and the post-Brexit landscape

The 6AMLD has been introduced and implemented to provide stricter measures in the fight against money laundering. In particular, criminal sanctions both by way of imprisonment and fine are increased. Further, 6AMLD broadens the scope of financial crimes being dealt with. However, whilst 5AMLD has been incorporated into the UK’s domestic legislation, 6AMLD will not be implemented. This is because the UK has its own strict measures in place for AML offences.
