Banking
Typical situations
- A regulatory date that cannot move: DORA remediation, the move to the EU AML Regulation, instant payments.
- A core banking system, data platform or payment chain to change without interrupting service.
- A backlog of client files, periodic reviews or transaction alerts to clear, to the standard your regulator expects.
What matters in this sector in Luxembourg
- DORA has applied since 17 January 2025. Under the law of 1 July 2024, the CSSF supervises it for banks and investment firms; significant banks report their register to the ECB.
- Banks' ICT arrangements follow DORA and Circular CSSF 25/882; other outsourcing follows Circular CSSF 22/806, amended in 2025 and 2026.
- Article 41 of the law of 5 April 1993 on the financial sector sets the conditions under which service providers may access data covered by professional secrecy.
- The Anti-Money Laundering Regulation, (EU) 2024/1624, applies from 10 July 2027. AMLA, the EU authority in Frankfurt, begins direct supervision of certain high-risk cross-border institutions in 2028.
