Handbook update: changes Section 2.6 (MLCO)

We have updated section 2.6 of the AML/CFT/CPF Handbook to reflect recent changes to this chapter, which we recently communicated, in line with updates the Money Laundering (Jersey) Order 2008.

The live version of the Handbook now includes these changes, which take effect immediately. Reggie, our regulatory chatbot, has also been updated to reflect the new requirements.

We have also taken the opportunity to fix editing errors flagged within the Handbook.

Some additional changes to the Order are not yet reflected in the Handbook, including:

  • the introduction of a risk-based approach to appointing an MLCO – this will be available from 31 October 2026, once the Handbook is updated
  • changes to the Reliance framework – these are already in the Order and will also take effect from 31 October 2026

These further updates will be subject to consultation, details of which will be published in early July

We have also added the archived version of the Handbook to our website.
