On July 1, 2015, ESMA published Q&As on anti-money
laundering and terrorist financing in investment-based crowdfunding
platforms. The Q&As aim to encourage common supervisory
approaches and consistent application of anti-money laundering and
terrorist financing rules to investment-based crowdfunding
platforms. The Q&As deal with questions related to the
treatment of investment-based crowdfunding under the Anti-Money
Laundering Directive, the differences in risk profiles of platforms
operating inside or outside a regulatory regime or within the scope
of MiFID, and how to mitigate risks.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general
guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought
