The week in AML

The CBA's 8th edition ASP guidance is the only item this week that touches a file you'll actually sign. Published 04/08/2026, it's the most significant development for ASP-regulated obliged entities — the AMLA survey on Central Contact Points and the EBA's draft reporting framework for the 2027 eligibility data collection are real, but they're roadmap items for the AMLA operationalisation, not this week's work. The two ICPAC exam registration reminders are routine. Read the 8th edition against your current ASP procedures now, and note any gaps before the next engagement letter goes out.
