Our AML group participated in the discussions regarding the SumUp proposal to the regulators. They suggest to extend the list of remote identification methods and change the limit on electronic money in the case of simplified identification. You can find the minutes of the meeting here. If we want the laws to be changed, we need to provide the statistical data to the regulator.
Saulius Racevičius (Board Member) participates in the Payment Board (Mokėjimų Taryba) meetings. This Board includes members from various institutions and companies and is led by the Bank of Lithuania. The Payments Board has been dealing with main issues and is trying to adjust law or similar level legal acts. We encourage you to provide some topic/questions for next year discussions. Note your thoughts here.
As you can see we have a very active AML group with Andrius Merkelis behind the wheel. They talk with regulators regularly and organized a few very formative events in the past months. AML is the key for every Fintech - join the group or add your Compliance Manager (info@fintechhub.lt).
Last week we asked if you have any questions to BoL. We are sure you missed it - note your questions here.
