The Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020

These Regulations are made in exercise of powers in section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 and section 8 of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018. They implement aspects of EU Directive 2018/843 relating to money laundering and terrorist financing, in particular about registration of trusts. With effect from the end of the Transition Period, there are changes to some references in the Regulations to EEA countries and third countries which will no longer be appropriate.
