On May 12, 2026, Ukraine's Parliament registered a bill (No. 15228) proposing amendments to the Law of Ukraine "On Prevention and Counteraction to Legalization (Laundering) of Proceeds from Crime, Financing of Terrorism and Financing of Proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction." The bill aims to improve the application of a risk-oriented approach in the field of financial monitoring. The initiative was submitted by Members of Parliament Mykola Skoryk and Maria Mezentseva-Fedorenko during the 15th session of the ninth convocation of Parliament. The bill has been registered under the economic policy category and was transmitted to Parliament leadership on May 12, 2026, for consideration. The development represents an effort to enhance Ukraine's anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing (AML/CTF) framework by refining how financial monitoring entities assess and manage risks in their compliance operations. The bill is currently in the early stages of the legislative process following its registration with Parliament. Further proceedings, including committee review and parliamentary debate, will determine the timeline for potential adoption. The specific provisions and detailed amendments proposed by the bill will become clearer as it progresses through Parliament's legislative procedures.
