It should be possible for Union bodies, offices and agencies that play a role in the Union AML/CFT framework to access beneficial ownership information in the performance of their duties. This is the case for the European Public Prosecutor’s Office (EPPO), but also for the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) in the performance of its investigations, as well as for Europol and Eurojust when supporting investigations by national authorities. As a supervisory authority, AMLA is to be granted access to beneficial ownership information when performing supervisory activities. In order to ensure that AMLA can effectively support the activities of FIUs, it should also be able to access beneficial ownership information in the context of joint analyses.
