". I welcome this attempt to build on the original 1991 Directive against Money Laundering. It is vital we take steps to combat these crimes which have the power to undermine confidence in the EU's financial systems, as well as notoriously close links with terrorist finance. I welcome the risk-based approach the Commission takes regarding the obligations for those covered by the Directive. This means the directive does not demand customer due diligence if the relevant financial transactions offer only a minimal risk of money laundering. In addition, the minimal risk of money laundering or terrorist financing also justifies the decision to exclude companies only occasionally offering limited financial services from the directive. Although money laundering is defined as a criminal offence with criminal law sanctions as a requirement, the directive should confine itself to just a ban on money laundering and terrorist financing leaving the Member States free to decide what punishments they wish to impose."@en1
