Original: European Union sets new identity verification standards under AMLR
The European Union has established new identity verification standards under its Anti-Money Laundering Regulation (AMLR). The rules set out how identity must be verified across the bloc, with likely implications for banks, fintech firms and identity providers operating in the EU. The changes are part of the Union's wider overhaul of anti-money laundering rules.
Why now: The EU's AMLR imposes new compliance obligations on financial and identity service providers, prompting industry attention.
