Consultation drop-in: Reliance and money laundering compliance officer regime
Jersey Financial Services Commission has launched a consultation on proposed updates to our Handbook for the prevention and detection of money laundering, the countering of terrorist financing and the countering of proliferation financing.
As part of the consultation process, we’ll be hosting two drop-in sessions at the Old Magistrates Court on:
- Monday 27 July 2026 at 12:00pm – 1:00pm
- Wednesday 29 July 2026 at 12:00pm – 1:00pm
These sessions will provide an opportunity for you to discuss the proposals and ask questions before the consultation closes on 18 August 2026.
The proposed changes reflect recent updates to the Money Laundering (Jersey) Order 2008 and support the Financial Services Competitiveness Programme, a joint initiative between the Government of Jersey, the JFSC and Jersey Finance. The aim is to make requirements more flexible and proportionate while maintaining effective safeguards against financial crime.
The consultation focuses on two areas:
- the money laundering compliance officer (MLCO) framework
- the reliance framework used for customer due diligence
