What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Verkhovna Rada adopted bill No. 14327-d, which aligns Ukraine with European Union legislation and the European Payments Council criteria for Single Euro Payments Area (SEPA) accession. The bill transposes European directives on combating money laundering and terrorist financing and proposes establishing a register of bank accounts and safe deposit boxes, administered by the finance ministry. Access to this register is granted to the National Agency on Corruption Prevention, the Bureau of Economic Security, and the Asset Recovery and Management Agency.
