Recital 5 a (new)
(5a) Policies and actions in other relevant areas of Union competence, for instance in international trade and development cooperation, should be utilised, where possible, to complement the work to fight money laundering and terrorist financing through the financial system. Those policies and actions should seek to complement and not undermine other policy goals of the Union.
Amendment 10 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 10 a (new)
Recital 10 a (new)
(10a) In order for the Union's common framework to combat money laundering and terrorist financing through the financial system to be most effective in the long-term, a coordinated approach is also needed beyond the Union. Trade agreements should be used as a tool to expand that approach to third countries. Strengthening good governance clauses in bilateral agreements with third countries already benefitting from or negotiating a trade agreement with the Union is key. Increasing and strengthening structured dialogue on combating illicit financial flows and providing continued exchanges of expertise would benefit all sides to close current loopholes and gaps.

Recital 37 a (new)
Recital 37 a (new)
(37a) To ensure anti-money laundering and counter terrorist financing rules are correctly implemented within third countries, monitoring of governance provisions of financial services should be strengthened in bilateral agreements and partnerships, even when these clauses are not binding.
