The Coordinating Body for Anti-Money Laundering and Countering Financing of Terrorism in cooperation with Finansinspektionen, the Financial Intelligence Unit of the Swedish Police, and the Swedish Security Service has developed a new brochure for providers of money transfer services on money laundering and terrorist financing.
Finansinspektionen has investigated Svea's compliance with certain key provisions in the anti-money laundering regulations. The investigation shows that the company has been in violation of several of these provisions.
Every year, FI requests information from undertakings that are subject to the money laundering regulations. The information is used as a basis for FI's risk-based supervision. A number of new questions have been added to next year's periodic reporting on money laundering.
The Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority (FI) issues Zimpler AB (Zimpler) a remark and an administrative fine of 3 million kronor for violations of anti–money laundering regulations.
Finansinspektionen withdraws the authorisation of Intergiro Intl AB (publ) to issue electronic money.
There is a high risk that the financial system is used by criminals to launder money and commit other crimes. In 2025, the Financial Supervisory Authority (FI) will prioritize its review to sectors and services where the risks of money laundering are elevated.
FI is issuing Klarna Bank AB (Klarna) a remark and an administrative fine of SEK 500 million for violating the anti-money laundering regulations.
FI has tested the effectiveness of 19 banks' automated sanction screening systems. The result shows that the effectiveness of the systems that the banks use could be higher and that there is room for some banks to improve their work in this area.
As we approach the starting point for the 2025 periodic reporting under the Anti-Money Laundering Act, a number of new questions have arisen. We have therefore updated our Q&A about this periodic reporting.
Amal Express Ekonomisk förening shall pay an administrative fine of SEK 100,000.
