In order to ensure the relevant expertise, the General Board should have two compositions. For all decisions on the adoption of acts of general application such as draft regulatory and implementing technical standards, guidelines, recommendations, and opinions relating to FIUs, it should be composed of the heads of FIUs of Member States (‘General Board in FIU composition’). For the same types of acts relating to the direct or indirect supervision of financial and non-financial obliged entities, it should be composed of the heads of AML/CFT supervisors that are public authorities (‘General Board in supervisory composition’). All parties represented in the General Board should make efforts to limit the turnover of their representatives, in order to ensure continuity of the Board’s work. All parties should aim to achieve a gender balanced representation on the General Board.
