The update concerns AMLA's supervisory framework and data collection methodology for obliged entities, including credit providers, but lacks specific product or service delivery details that would clearly map to a single FS category.
Credit providers are explicitly mentioned as an entity type in the updated data collection template, but the update is primarily administrative and procedural rather than focused on lending products or services themselves.
Specialism
The update concerns AMLA's preparation for direct supervision of obliged entities through a selection exercise and data collection framework, which constitutes regulatory reporting and supervisory methodology development.
Mandatory inheritance: Regulatory Reporting is a child of Supervision, so Supervision must be raised as the secondary tag.

TITLE: Anti-Money Laundering Authority Advances Preparations for 2027 Selection Exercise
BODY:
On 17 April 2026, the Anti-Money Laundering Authority (AMLA) published two updates marking the next steps in preparing for the selection of obliged entities for direct supervision beginning in 2028.
The European Banking Authority (EBA) has published a draft data model and taxonomy supporting the methodology to identify obliged entities that will fall under AMLA's direct supervision as part of its reporting framework release 4.3. The draft taxonomy is designed to support the first selection exercise, which will take place in 2027. The taxonomy should be read alongside the templates and instructions AMLA previously published for the testing and calibration exercise.
AMLA has also published an updated version of the data collection template for the 2026 testing and calibration exercise, which was launched on 16 March 2026. The update addresses two omissions in the original template: Kosovo has been added to the list of countries, and credit providers have been added to the list of entity types. Only entities that are credit providers and/or have activities in Kosovo are required to use the new template. Both the updated and original templates will be accepted, and entities that have already submitted their files are not required to resubmit.
Stakeholders, including the private sector and national competent authorities, are invited to submit feedback on the draft taxonomy via EBA's feedback form by 10 May 2026. The deadline for data submission under the testing and calibration exercise remains 22 April 2026.
