Regulatory Roadmap
Do you remember where the top and bottom is in the regulation of banks and financial service providers?
The financial services industry is now one of the most heavily regulated and supervised industries. The 2008 financial crisis has shown The failure of certain individual banks can have far-reaching consequences for the economy and society and threaten the stability of the global economic system. These banks are also referred to as systemically important banks: They are "too big to fail". Because of this systemic importance of banks, the financial services industry's regulatory regime plays a far-reaching role compared to other industries.
In order to stabilise the financial sector and to prevent further comparable events, a reform of the entire financial services sector was introduced. As a result, the industry has had to cope with a variety of new challenges, which have been created by new regulatory reforms at national, European and global level.

Upcoming national and international regulations for implementation
Even today, the regulatory environment in the financial services industry is still undergoing constant change. It is therefore worth having a compass at hand to keep an eye on this dynamic environment. To help you do this, the following is an overview of some of the national and international regulations whose implementation is imminent.
What is currently important for international supervisory authorities
Hardly has the 5th EU Money Laundering Directive been implemented than the implementation of the 6th EU Money Laundering Directive "Directive (EU) of 23 October 2018 on the criminal law combating of money laundering" is already pending. This supplements the 5th Money Laundering Directive in criminal law terms by creating minimum standards for the definition of predicate offences and sanctions in the area of money laundering.
Which national topics are in focus for financial service providers
At the national level, it is particularly worth taking a closer look at the as yet unadopted law on combating corporate crime. The core element of the draft is the Association Sanctions Act (VerSanG), which provides for a tightening of corporate criminal law on the one hand and the possibility of mitigating sanctions, e.g. by providing evidence of a compliance management system, on the other.
The focus this year is not only on regulations, guidelines and laws. New standards and guidelines are also attracting attention: In particular, the new ISO 37301 "Compliance Management Systems - Guidelines" in conjunction with the Association Sanctions Act will bring about change. The new ISO standard is the new version of the previous ISO 19600, the biggest difference being the change from a type B standard to a type A standard. This means that a Compliance Management System, structured according to the new ISO standard, can be certified. This will play an important role for companies in the future, especially in conjunction with the planned law on sanctions for associations.
