New proposals released by the European Commission to reinforce anti-money laundering (AML) regulation will give banks a greater enforcement role, a senior consultant says.

Key elements of the new directive include the expansion of provisions dealing with politically exposed persons (PEPs), increased coverage of the gambling sector, and a decrease in the current cash payment reporting threshold to €7,500.
