Cross-border AML data sharing

Money laundering is taking place across borders and with unprecedented speed and complexity. Yet anti-money laundering (AML) regimes remain fragmented, often limited by national privacy and secrecy rules.

Regulators worldwide are working to recalibrate laws and frameworks to encourage cross-border AML data sharing while preserving data protection standards.

The goal of these changes is not only compliance but also to empower financial institutions to better identify risks, reduce costs, and strengthen systemic resilience against financial crime.

This paper examines regulatory drivers, institutional benefits, legal barriers, and process-oriented solutions to align AML obligations with effective cross-border information sharing.
