RTS on the assessment of the inherent and residual risk profile of obliged entities (financial sector)

Waar het over gaat

Harmonised methodology supervisors use to rate the inherent and residual ML/TF risk of credit and financial institutions: the data points, risk indicators, weighting and the resulting risk categories. Final report published by AMLA on 16 December 2025 and sent to the Commission; the Commission's Legal Service asked for clarifications and AMLA aims to finalise the RTS before the end of 2026 (General Board, 1 July 2026). The non-financial sector has its own draft RTS under the same article, in consultation since July 2026.

Wat het in de praktijk betekent

Determines how your supervisor classifies your institution and how intensively it is supervised. Expect standardised data requests on customers, products, channels and geography; align the SIRA, risk appetite and management information with these indicators.

Titels, samenvattingen en versienotities zijn de officiële Engelse bewoordingen van het register en blijven in elke taalversie Engels; de statuslabels en datums zijn vertaald.
