Regulations

  • Wet ter voorkoming van witwassen en financieren van terrorisme (Wwft)

    The Wwft is the Dutch anti-money laundering act, in force since 2008. It requires obliged entities to report unusual transactions, not suspicious ones, to FIU-Nederland against fixed indicators. It is repealed in full on 10 July 2027, when the directly applicable AMLR takes over the conduct rules and a Dutch implementing act keeps only supervision, the FIU, sanctions and registers.
