ACAMS Nordics Chapter October 2025 Virtual Event: Merge or Mess? Adding Evasion of Financial Sanctions to the AML/CFT Mix

Overview

The ACAMS Nordics Chapter invites you to an insightful virtual event focusing on the transformative changes introduced by the new AML Regulation.  We are honoured to be joined by Stanisław Tosza, Associate Professor in Compliance and Law Enforcement at the University of Luxembourg. Professor Tosza’s article examines the impact of the AML reform and the Sanctions Directive on obliged entities, in particular on the financial sector. He highlights how the combined effect of these regulations will not only significantly increase compliance costs but also heighten liability risks for non-compliance.

The webinar will begin with an introduction to the new AML package and its key elements, presented by David Kaye, Legal Counsel at Swedbank and a member of the ACAMS Nordics Chapter board. This opening session will set the stage for understanding the broader context of the discussion.

Together with the board of members of the ACAMS Nordics Chapter, we will further discuss the practical considerations for the financial sector when navigating the evolving regulatory landscape.

We encourage attendees to read Stanisław Tosza’s article prior to the event and submit questions to nordicschapter@acams.org by 6th October. Selected questions will be addressed during the Q&A session. Participants attending live will also have the opportunity to post their questions through Zoom.
