Further imposed on banks, accountants, lawyers, brokers and casinos be more attentive when suspicious transactions of their clients. It will also be easier to trace the senders and recipients of money transfers.
The fourth directive on money laundering warner bros to combat tax evasion or terrorist sponsorship has been negotiated between the European Parliament and EU Council of Ministers.

EU countries will now have two years to introduce money-laundering directive into national law.
