Slovenia's Government Considers Amendments to Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Legislation

On July 6, 2026, the Government of Slovenia published the agenda for its seventh written session, which included consideration of a proposal to amend the Law on Prevention of Money Laundering and Financing of Terrorism (AML/CTF Law). The Minister for Finance submitted the proposal for consideration under an abbreviated procedure. The amendment proposal forms part of a broader legislative agenda that encompasses six additional bills scheduled for the session. These include amendments to the Law on Commercial Companies, the Law on Mass Real Estate Valuation, the Law on Solvency Supervision of Investment Firms, the Criminal Code, and the Law on Public Servants. The government also addressed a response to conclusions from the Commission for Supervision of Public Finances regarding budget allocation matters. The abbreviated procedure applied to the AML/CTF Law amendment indicates expedited legislative processing. The specific content of the proposed amendments was not detailed in the agenda publication, though such amendments typically address compliance requirements, supervisory frameworks, or implementation of international standards. The proposal's inclusion on the government agenda suggests it progresses toward parliamentary consideration. Further details regarding the substantive changes, effective dates, and implementation timeline would be available through the legislative materials accompanying the proposal or subsequent parliamentary proceedings. The government's concurrent consideration of financial sector amendments, including those affecting investment firm supervision, indicates a coordinated approach to regulatory updates affecting financial institutions and compliance obligations.

Slovenia's Ministry of Finance Publishes Draft Amendments to Act on Prudential Supervision of Investment Firms

On July 2, 2026, the Ministry of Finance published the Draft Act Amending the Act on Prudential Supervision of Investment Firms. The two primary objectives include: The draft act transposes into Slovenian law the amendments introduced by Directive (EU) 2024/2994 to Directive (EU) 2019/2034 on the prudential supervision of investment firms. As part of the broader EMIR 3 legislative package, these amendments introduce requirements for managing concentration risk arising from investment firms' exposures to central counterparties (CCPs) and counterparty risk in centrally cleared derivative transactions. The draft act incorporates these requirements into the framework for internal management and risk control at brokerage firms and grants the Agency appropriate supervisory powers to oversee compliance. The draft act updates references to Slovenia's new Banking Act (ZBan-4), which replaced the previous banking law, and aligns references to European Union regulations with the current EU legal framework.
