Sanctions & settlements professional obligations Journalists Investment management companies Listed companies and issuers AMF Enforcement Committee fines the depositary CACEIS Bank for breaches of its professional obligations
The AMF Enforcement Committee fined CACEIS Bank €3.5 million and issued a warning on 17 December 2025 for breaches of its professional obligations as depositary for seven French-law UCITS funds managed by H2O AM LLP (later transferred to H2O AM Europe). This decision underscores the AMF's strict enforcement of depositary oversight duties, particularly in verifying fund managers' investment monitoring systems, asset valuations, and compliance with prospectus constraints like issuer limits and security ratings. It matters for compliance teams as it highlights personal accountability risks and potential fines for inadequate due diligence in fund depositary roles, signaling heightened scrutiny amid past H2O fund issues.
What Changed
- This is an enforcement action, not a regulatory change; it reinforces existing obligations under French UCITS rules (transposing UCITS Directive V) for depositaries. Key upheld objections include:
- Failure to perform sufficient checks on the asset management company's (AMC) systems for monitoring UCITS investment ratios and valuing unlisted securities.
- Inadequate verification of investment decision legality, such as compliance with prospectus limits on debt security ratings, derivative types, and the 10% single-issuer bond exposure cap.
No new...
Suggested Considerations
- Conduct gap analysis: Review depositary control frameworks against AMF expectations for verifying AMC investment monitoring, unlisted asset valuations, and prospectus compliance (e.g., 10% issuer limits, ratings).
- Enhance oversight processes: Implement robust, documented checks on AMC systems, including independent testing of ratios, legality of investments, and derivatives.
- Training and audits: Train staff on UCITS depositary duties; perform internal audits of ongoing fund oversight, prioritizing illiquid/unlisted exposures.
- Monitor appeals: Track any CACEIS appeal, as outcomes could set precedents; update policies if upheld.
- Reporting: Ensure timely escalation of suspected AMC breaches to AMF if identified.
Key Dates
- AMF Enforcement Committee decision date: €3.5M fine and warning imposed on CACEIS Bank
Compliance Impact
Urgency: High - This recent (Dec 2025) decision directly impacts depositaries with €3.5M precedent for oversight failures, amid AMF's pattern of multi-million fines (e.g., €5.67M total in related 2024 case involving CACEIS). It elevates risks for UCITS/AIF depositaries handling non-standard assets, demanding immediate control reviews to avoid personal sanctions, warnings, or business restrictions, especially post-H2O scandal.

Sustainable Finance Periodic & ongoing disclosures Corporate sustainability reporting: AMF’s response to EFRAG’s consultation on the simplification of European standards
The Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF), France's financial markets regulator, responded to EFRAG's July 31, 2025, public consultation on simplified European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) under the CSRD, welcoming a 57% reduction in mandatory datapoints and 55% shorter standards while urging refinements in materiality, climate reporting, and financial effects disclosure. This matters for compliance professionals as it signals upcoming proportionate ESRS revisions that could ease reporting burdens for large listed companies starting voluntarily in 2026, enhancing investor usability without diluting key sustainability insights.
What Changed
- AMF endorses EFRAG's simplifications but proposes targeted adjustments:
- Materiality assessment: Support for proportionate double materiality (impacts, risks, opportunities or IRO) but requires minimum specification of impact type (positive/negative, risk, opportunity);...
- Climate reporting: Regrets removal of "net zero" definition (90-95% gross GHG reduction trajectory), essential for 2024 comparability.
- Anticipated financial effects: Strongly backs Option 1 (quantitative info required, with exceptions) for climate matters to align with ISSB and investor needs; flexible for other topics.
- Reporting reliefs: Supports "undue costs/efforts" exemptions (e.g., metrics except Scope 3 GHG) with time-bound limits to match ISSB.
EFRAG's draft cuts mandatory datapoints by 57-61%, eliminates...
Suggested Considerations
- Monitor EFRAG's post-consultation technical advice (end-November 2025) and EC adoption process; prepare for voluntary uptake in 2026 reporting cycles.
- Listed companies: Refine materiality processes to specify IRO types and use gross impacts; retain "net zero" definitions in climate plans; prioritize quantitative climate financial effects.
- Conduct or update materiality assessments per EFRAG guidance (e.g., value chain, thresholds); leverage "undue costs" relief judiciously with time limits.
- Prepare xHTML digital tagging for sustainability statements in management reports.
- French firms: Align 2026 statements with AMF supervisory expectations, noting non-adoption of ESMA's GLESI guidelines pending full CSRD transposition.
Key Dates
- EFRAG publishes draft simplified ESRS for public consultation
- Consultation closes
- EFRAG submits technical advice to European Commission
- Sector-specific ESRS adoption planned
- Voluntary application of simplified standards, if legislative timeline allows
Compliance Impact
Urgency: Medium - Not immediate mandates, as this is a consultation response with voluntary 2026 start, but proactive preparation is essential for large listed firms facing AMF scrutiny on 2025/2026 statements. Matters due to potential burden reduction (57% fewer datapoints) balanced by AMF's push for investor-critical details like quantitative climate effects, aligning EU CSRD with global ISSB standards amid supervisory ramp-up.

Sanctions & settlements professional obligations Disclosure Obligations Other professionals Journalists The AMF Enforcement Committee fines a Danish investment bank for breaches of professional obligations committed by a French branch
The AMF Enforcement Committee imposed a €300,000 fine on Saxo Bank A/S on 16 July 2025 for multiple breaches of professional obligations committed through its French branch, including failures to properly inform clients about significant changes to derivatives procedures, margin calculations, and securities transaction incidents, as well as deficiencies in equity savings plan (PEA) transfers. This enforcement action demonstrates the AMF's active oversight of cross-border investment banks operating in France and highlights critical gaps in client disclosure practices that compliance teams must address.
What Changed
- The enforcement decision does not introduce new regulatory requirements but rather clarifies existing obligations under current French financial regulations.
- Client notification requirements for significant procedural changes affecting derivatives trading and margin calculations
- Incident disclosure obligations for securities transactions that could materially affect order execution
- Timely information provision regarding regulatory consequences of the UK's withdrawal from the European Union as they affect PEA accounts
- Operational procedures for managing equity savings plan transfers with proper documentation and client communication
Suggested Considerations
- *Audit client notification procedures for derivatives trading changes, particularly regarding position closure procedures and margin calculation methodologies, ensuring clients receive advance notice of material changes
- *Implement incident reporting protocols for securities transactions that could affect order execution, with documented evidence of timely client notification
- *Review PEA transfer procedures to ensure compliance with regulatory timeframes and proper documentation of information provided to clients regarding Brexit-related consequences
- *Strengthen information governance to ensure all material operational changes are communicated to clients within required timeframes and with appropriate detail
- *Conduct compliance training for front-office and operations staff on professional obligations regarding client communication and information disclosure
Key Dates
- AMF Enforcement Committee decision issued imposing €300,000 fine
- Official publication of enforcement decision
- Appeal period available (no specific timeframe stated in the decision)

Anti-money Laundering Asset management AMF invites financial market participants to take part in the EBA consultation on draft AML/CFT implementing standards
The AMF is urging French financial market participants to engage in the EBA's consultation launched on March 6, 2025, on draft Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS) for AML/CFT implementing standards under AMLD6 and AMLR, focusing on harmonized risk assessment methodologies for supervisors and obliged entities. This matters because it signals a shift to uniform EU-wide AML/CFT supervision via AMLA (post-EBA handover on January 1, 2026), requiring firms to adapt to standardized risk indicators, data reporting, and enforcement, with new CDD rules applying from July 2027. Participation ensures firms influence final standards amid the transition to a single EU AML rulebook.
What Changed
- The draft RTS propose harmonized methodologies for AML/CFT supervision, including:
- Risk Assessment of Obliged Entities (Article 40(2) AMLD6): A three-step process with indicators for inherent risk (customers, products/services, geography, distribution channels), control...
- Risk Assessment for Direct Supervision (Article 12(7) AMLAR): Two-stage selection for AMLA direct oversight of high-risk cross-border firms (operating in ≥6 Member States, meeting...
- CDD Updates: Risk-based approach for new customers from July 2027; five-year transition for existing customers, prioritizing high-risk.
- Pecuniary Sanctions RTS (Article 53(10) AMLD6): Structured classification of breaches, proportionate sanctions, and enforcement for serious/repeated/systematic infringements to ensure uniformity...
Suggested Considerations
- Participate in EBA consultation: Submit feedback on draft RTS via EBA channels, focusing on risk indicators, data frequency, and feasibility; AMF encourages French firms to act promptly.
- Conduct compliance gap analysis: Review current AML frameworks against proposed indicators (inherent risk, controls, residual risk); prioritize high-risk customers/products.
- Enhance systems: Invest in regtech for automated risk scoring, transaction monitoring, and data reporting to supervisors; update governance, policies, and CDD processes.
- Prepare for AMLA supervision: For cross-border firms, model group-wide risk profiles; develop remediation plans for breaches.
- Ongoing monitoring: Implement annual risk reviews and ad-hoc reassessments for business changes.
Key Dates
EBA consultation launch; on draft RTS for AML/CFT standards (ongoing as of analysis)
EBA hands over AML/CFT mandates, tools (e.g., EuReCa database), and functions to AMLA; ; existing EBA guidelines remain until replaced
New AMLD6/AMLR rules apply directly; , including CDD for new customers and start of phased compliance
AMLA begins direct supervision; of selected high-risk entities
Full CDD compliance; for existing customers (five-year transition from 2027)
Compliance Impact
Urgency: High – While not yet final, the consultation shapes binding RTS under the new AMLA-led regime post-January 2026 handover, with direct rules from July 2027 requiring system upgrades and data readiness; delays risk non-compliance with harmonized supervision, higher sanctions, and AMLA scrutiny for large firms. Matters due to shift to uniform EU standards, ending national discretion and increasing reporting burdens—firms acting now can influence outcomes and future-proof via tech/governance investments.

BankBroker DealerAsset Manager Sanctions & settlements professional obligations Journalists Investment management companies The AMF Enforcement Committee fines a financial investment advisor, two asset management companies and their directors, and a credit institution a total of €5,670,000
The AMF Enforcement Committee imposed total fines of €5,670,000 on a financial investment advisor (FIA), two asset management companies (AMCs), their directors, and a credit institution for breaches of professional obligations. This enforcement action underscores the AMF's rigorous scrutiny of operational controls, due diligence, and governance in investment services, serving as a critical reminder for firms to maintain robust procedures to avoid similar sanctions. It matters because it highlights personal liability for directors and escalating fines for systemic failures, potentially influencing peer reviews and audit priorities.
What Changed
- This is an enforcement decision, not a regulatory change introducing new rules. It reinforces existing AMF requirements under professional obligations, including:
- Implementation of operational procedures for investment/divestment processes, such as verifying lender authorizations.
- Systematic anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorism financing (CTF) due diligence on fund assets and liabilities.
- Justification of retrocessions (rebates) to distributors, proving enhanced client service quality.
- Honest, fair, and diligent business conduct with requisite skill and care, extending to marketing materials and advisory services.
No new requirements; emphasis on enforcement of MiFID II-aligned...
Suggested Considerations
- Conduct gap analysis of operational procedures for investments/divestments, ensuring lender authorization checks (reference AMF Position-Recommendation DOC-2020-05 on portfolio management).
- Review AML/CTF due diligence frameworks for fund assets/liabilities, aligning with AMF Regulation 2016-01.
- Audit retrocession practices to distributors, documenting service quality enhancements (per AMF doctrine on inducements).
- Update marketing materials and advisory processes for compliance with honesty/fairness standards.
- Enhance senior manager attestations and training on personal liability under CMF L.621-15-1.
Compliance Impact
Urgency: High – This signals intensified AMF enforcement on professional obligations in 2025 (multiple similar fines: €1.3M, €1.89M, €0.5M, €2.5M implied, €0.305M, €3.5M), with personal bans and multimillion fines. Matters due to director accountability trends, potential for follow-on audits, and educational role of Enforcement Committee decisions in clarifying regulations—non-compliance risks reputational damage and capital outflows.

The AMF publication announces implementation guidance and FAQs on the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) released by EFRAG and the European Commission, aimed at clarifying reporting standards under the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS). This matters for compliance professionals as it provides actionable tools to meet expanded sustainability disclosure requirements, ensuring audit-ready reporting amid phased rollouts and third-party assurance mandates. It supports harmonized EU-wide compliance for nearly 50,000 companies, enhancing data comparability and investor transparency.
What Changed
- - EFRAG and the European Commission have published specific implementation guidance and FAQs to operationalize CSRD reporting using ESRS, focusing on double materiality assessments, climate...
- CSRD replaces the NFRD with broader scope (quadrupling affected companies to ~50,000), mandatory digital tagging (ESEF/XBRL), limited third-party assurance (phasing to reasonable), and integrated...
- Recent amendments defer timelines for certain waves, adjust scope thresholds, add exemptions, cap value-chain disclosures, and refine assurance standards.
Suggested Considerations
- Review EFRAG/EC guidance and FAQs for ESRS implementation; conduct double materiality assessment to identify material ESG topics.
- Map and collect ESG data (GHG emissions Scope 1-3, value-chain impacts) with audit trails; develop Paris-aligned transition plans.
- Integrate sustainability into management reports with digital tagging (XBRL/ESEF); secure limited third-party assurance.
- Strengthen data governance, test processes, and monitor updates from EFRAG/EC/AMF.
Key Dates
- First wave (NFRD reporters: large listed/public interest entities >500 employees) publish CSRD reports for FY2024
- Large EU companies (previously planned for FY2025) deferred to 2028 for FY2027 reporting
- Listed SMEs report for FY2026 (deferred from 2027)
- Final wave including certain non-EU firms; CSDDD applies from July 26, 2029
Compliance Impact
Urgency: High - With first reports due in 2025 for ~11,000 firms and preparations critical for 2026+ waves, non-compliance risks enforcement, reputational damage, and investor scrutiny. Deferred timelines offer breathing room but demand immediate data readiness amid evolving standards and assurance mandates.

Appointment Sanctions & settlements Journalists Valérie Michel-Amsellem becomes Chair of the AMF Enforcement Committee
This AMF publication announces the appointment of Valérie Michel-Amsellem as the new Chair of the AMF Enforcement Committee, the independent body responsible for imposing sanctions in financial market violations. It matters for compliance professionals because leadership changes in enforcement can signal shifts in sanctioning priorities, rigor, or focus areas, potentially influencing how firms approach risk management and remediation. While no immediate policy changes are introduced, monitoring the new Chair's tenure is essential given the Committee's role in upholding market integrity.
What Changed
There are no substantive regulatory changes, new requirements, or amendments to the AMF General Regulation outlined in this announcement. The publication solely details an internal governance appointment within the AMF's structure, where the Enforcement Committee maintains its established autonomy for sanction decisions, separate from the AMF Board. This aligns with prior affirmations of the Committee's independence, as upheld in ECHR rulings on its impartiality.
Suggested Considerations
- Review backgrounds of key AMF personnel, including Valérie Michel-Amsellem, for insights into enforcement trends (e.g., via AMF governance pages: https://www.amf-france.org/en/amf/our-organisation/our-governance).
- Enhance internal monitoring of AMF sanction releases (https://www.amf-france.org/en/news-publications/news-releases/enforcement-committee-news-releases) to track patterns under new leadership.
- Conduct gap analyses on compliance programs for high-risk areas like market abuse, given the Committee's sanction powers up to €100 million or 10x profits.
Key Dates
- Appointment takes effect upon announcement, with no disclosed transition period
Compliance Impact
Urgency: Low - This personnel change does not impose new obligations or alter existing rules, posing minimal immediate risk. It matters indirectly for long-term strategy, as the Chair could steer enforcement toward stricter penalties or novel interpretations of obligations (e.g., as analyzed in historical sanction studies: https://faculty-research.ipag.edu/wp-content/uploads/recherche/WP/IPAG_WP_2014_072.pdf).

Appointment Sanctions & settlements Journalists Appointements to the AMF Enforcement Committee
This AMF publication announces the partial renewal of the Enforcement Committee, including four new appointments, two reappointments, and the subsequent election of Valérie Michel-Amsellem as Chair on 28 February 2024. It matters for compliance professionals as changes in committee composition can influence enforcement priorities, sanction severity, and interpretations of financial regulations under AMF jurisdiction.
What Changed
There are no new regulatory requirements or substantive changes to laws; this is an administrative renewal of the Enforcement Committee's membership. Key developments include: new members Jean-Claude Hassan (Vice-President of the Council of State appointee, also chairs second section), Xavier Samuel (Court of Cassation appointee), Sophie Langlois and Aurélien Soustre (Ministerial appointees); reappointments of Anne Le Lorier and Ute Meyenberg.
Suggested Considerations
- Amsellem's prior roles in economic regulation and Court of Cassation) to anticipate enforcement trends; update internal AMF monitoring dashboards with new committee details; assess ongoing investigations or settlements for potential impact from refreshed perspectives.
Key Dates
- Ministerial order appointing new and reappointed members
- Publication of the ministerial order
- Composition published in the Official Journal
- First meeting; election of Valérie Michel-Amsellem as Chair and Jean-Claude Hassan as second section Chair
Compliance Impact
Urgency: low - This personnel change poses minimal immediate risk but signals potential evolution in enforcement tone under new leadership experienced in sanctions and regulation (e.g., Michel-Amsellem's appellate background). It matters longer-term for firms in protracted AMF proceedings, as committee decisions on sanctions and settlements directly affect penalties and reputational harm.

Periodic & ongoing disclosures Sustainable Finance Regulatory developments The AMF responds to the European Commission’s public consultation on the draft European sustainability reporting standards
The AMF's response to the European Commission's public consultation advocates for simplified European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) under the CSRD, emphasizing retained quality in climate reporting, interoperability with ISSB standards, and proportionality while opposing overly complex materiality assessments. This matters for compliance professionals as it signals upcoming ESRS revisions that could reduce reporting burdens but maintain investor-focused disclosures, influencing 2026-2028 sustainability statements for listed firms and financial institutions. https://www.amf-france.org/en/news-publications/news/amf-responds-european-commissions-public-consultation-draft-european-sustainability-reporting
What Changed
- - Simplified ESRS Structure: EFRAG's draft reduces mandatory datapoints by 57-71% and ESRS length by 55%, focusing on materiality, fair presentation, and quantitative data while streamlining double...
- Materiality Assessment: AMF opposes assessing impact materiality post-mitigation (prefers "gross" approach for relevance and consistency) but supports specifying impacts, risks, or opportunities per...
- Climate Reporting: AMF regrets removal of "net-zero" target definition (requiring 90-95% gross GHG reduction trajectory) and seeks harmonization for financial actors; supports Option 1 for...
- Reporting Reliefs: Introduces "undue costs or efforts" exemptions (e.g., for metrics except Scope 3 GHG), with AMF recommending time-bound limits; further simplification proposed for social metrics...
- Interoperability: AMF stresses alignment with ISSB, accepting some EU-specific divergences for simplification.
Suggested Considerations
- Review and refresh double materiality assessments using "gross" impacts, specifying risks/opportunities per topic.
- Retain "net-zero" definitions in climate plans if used; prepare quantitative climate financial effects data (Option 1).
- Evaluate "undue costs" reliefs for non-climate metrics, documenting with time-bound justifications.
- Monitor EFRAG/EC updates post-November 2025; test voluntary simplified ESRS in 2026 cycles.

Compliance Impact
Urgency: Medium – Revisions offer relief (e.g., 57%+ datapoint cuts) but require proactive preparation for voluntary 2026 use and mandatory 2027/2028; critical for 2025 reporters under current ESRS/"quick fix" to avoid enforcement. Matters due to AMF/ESMA supervision ramp-up, investor demands for comparable climate data, and ISSB alignment risks if divergences grow.

Innovation The AMF publishes its proposals for an open finance framework
The Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF), France's financial markets authority, has published proposals for an **open finance framework** via a public consultation, extending open banking principles to broader financial data sharing for enhanced innovation and competition. This matters for compliance professionals as it signals upcoming regulatory requirements for secure data access, APIs, and customer consent mechanisms, aligning with EU trends toward open finance while prioritizing consumer protection and market resilience. Firms must engage early to shape the final rules and prepare systems for compliance.
What Changed
- The publication outlines AMF's proposals for an open finance framework, building on open banking (e.g., PSD2) to include investments, insurance, and asset management data. Key elements include:
- Mandatory API-based data sharing for account information and payment initiation, extended to non-banking products like securities and insurance.
- Enhanced customer consent and control mechanisms, with granular permissions, revocation rights, and strong authentication.
- Security and liability standards aligned with DORA (Digital Operational Resilience Act), including incident reporting and resilience testing.
- Governance structure with a centralized standards body, similar to open banking hubs in the UK or EU.
Suggested Considerations
- Review and respond to consultation: Submit feedback on proposals via AMF portal (https://www.amf-france.org/en/news-publications/news/amf-publishes-its-proposals-open-finance-framework) to influence final rules.
- Conduct gap analysis: Assess current APIs, data sharing capabilities, consent processes against proposed standards; integrate DORA compliance.
- Update policies: Revise customer onboarding, data protection (GDPR alignment), and TPP accreditation processes.
- Engage stakeholders: Participate in AMF's asset management tokenization consultation and AI use cases study for synergies.
- Test systems: Pilot secure APIs for investment/insurance data sharing; prepare for cybersecurity inspections.
Key Dates
- Expected finalization of AMF AI roadmap and tokenization consultation, influencing open finance APIs
- AMF publishes 2026 priorities, including open finance as part of innovation framework
- End of MiCA transitional period, relevant for crypto/open finance intersections
- Public consultation on open finance proposals; firms should check AMF site for exact submission deadline (typically 1-3 months post-publication)
Compliance Impact
Urgency: High – As a consultation, immediate engagement is critical to shape rules, but full implementation may not hit until 2027+. It matters due to alignment with AMF's 2026 priorities on innovation (AI, tokenization, MiCA) and resilience (DORA, cybersecurity), risking fines or supervisory actions for non-prepared firms amid EU harmonization push. Early movers gain competitive edge in data-driven services.

Regulatory developments Europe & international Sustainable Finance Periodic & ongoing disclosures AMF's response to the International Sustainability Standards Board’s consultation on the exposure drafts on international sustainability disclosures
The Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF), France's financial markets regulator, issued a position paper on July 27, 2022, responding to the International Sustainability Standards Board's (ISSB) consultation on exposure drafts for international sustainability disclosure standards (IFRS S1 and S2). This matters for compliance professionals as it signals France's push for global-EU interoperability in ESG reporting, influencing how firms align ISSB "investor-focused" standards with Europe's double-materiality CSRD/ESRS framework to avoid dual reporting burdens. https://www.amf-france.org/en/news-publications/amfs-eu-positions/amf-response-issb-consultation-exposure-drafts-sustainability-disclosure-standards; https://www.amf-france.org/sites/institutionnel/files/private/2022-07/Position%20paper%20ISSB%20AMF%20-%20July%202022_0.pdf
What Changed
- This is not a new regulation but AMF's recommendations to ISSB, emphasizing:
- Interoperability with EU standards: AMF urges alignment between ISSB's financial materiality approach and EFRAG's double-materiality (impact + financial) ESRS, including jurisdictional working groups...
- Broad ESG coverage: Calls for sector-agnostic standards beyond climate (e.g., full ESG spectrum via collaboration with EFRAG/GRI).
- Phased implementation: Suggests gradual rollout of detailed requirements (e.g., Appendix B in S2) and an ISSB "Transition Resource Group" like IASB's for IFRS 9/15/17 to aid implementation.
- Double-materiality advocacy: Prefers standards addressing all stakeholders, not just investors.
No binding changes; ISSB issued final IFRS S1/S2 in June 2023.
Suggested Considerations
- Monitor and map standards: Conduct gap analyses between current disclosures, ESRS, and ISSB S1/S2, focusing on interoperability (e.g., climate metrics, Scope 3 GHG).
- Engage in transitions: Participate in potential ISSB Transition Resource Group or jurisdictional groups; prepare for phased ISSB implementation if adopted locally.
- Enhance reporting processes: Update materiality assessments for double-materiality, quantitative climate financial impacts, and ESG breadth; leverage AMF's 2025 study on listed firms for benchmarks.
- Stakeholder dialogue: Respond to ongoing consultations (e.g., EFRAG until Sep 2025) and track ISSB agenda priorities.
Compliance Impact
Urgency: Medium. This 2022 AMF response is historical but highly relevant amid 2025 EFRAG simplifications emphasizing ISSB interoperability, as EU firms juggle CSRD with global ISSB momentum (e.g., IFRS finals in 2023). Matters for avoiding reporting fragmentation, with risks of supervisory scrutiny on French listed firms; low immediate enforcement but builds toward mandatory convergence.

Sanctions & settlements Compliance Journalists Investment services providers The AMF Enforcement Committee fines a depositary for breaches of its professional obligations
The AMF Enforcement Committee fined RBC Investor Services Bank France SA (RBC ISBF) €500,000 plus a warning on 20 July 2022 (published 08 January 2026) for breaches as a UCITS and AIF depositary, including 25 confirmed failures in tiered intervention procedures for investment ratio overruns and deficient monitoring of 14 questionable cash flows over 45 months. This decision underscores AMF's strict enforcement of depositary duties under French regulations implementing UCITS/AIFMD, emphasizing robust controls for ratio compliance, cash flow verification, and documentation. It matters for compliance teams as it provides precedent on what constitutes "irregular and deficient" oversight, potentially increasing scrutiny and fines for similar lapses in depositary functions.
What Changed
- This is an enforcement decision, not a new regulation, but it clarifies and reinforces existing depositary obligations under French UCITS/AIFMD rules (e.g., Articles L. 214-7 et seq.
- Ratio monitoring and intervention: Depositaries must implement tiered procedures for investment/asset composition ratio breaches (e.g., diversification limits); 25 of 28 alleged anomalies were upheld...
- Cash flow oversight: Must identify significant/inconsistent flows, verify instructions against laws, fund rules, prospectuses, and ensure ownership thresholds (e.g., 5% capital holding for advances);...
Suggested Considerations
- Review depositary controls: Audit tiered intervention procedures for ratio overruns; ensure unique tracking (even if not upheld here) and redundancy elimination in reporting.
- Enhance cash flow monitoring: For all inflows/outflows, collect "precise and convincing" docs (e.g., ownership proofs for advances >5% capital); flag inconsistencies with fund docs/prospectus.
- Conduct gap analysis: Sample historical flows (e.g., 45-month lookbacks) across AIFs/UCITS; test against AMF objections standards from this and similar cases (e.g., CACEIS).
- Update policies/procedures: Document controls for legality checks on instructions; train staff on evidentiary thresholds to avoid "deficient monitoring" findings.
- Appeal if applicable: Lodge appeal against decision (no deadline specified).
Key Dates
- AMF Enforcement Committee decision date imposing €500,000 fine and warning on RBC ISBF
- Public news release/publication date of the decision
Compliance Impact
Urgency: Medium – Recent publication (08 January 2026) signals ongoing AMF focus on depositary failings amid H2O-related probes, but stems from 2022 events with no immediate deadlines. Matters because it sets precedents for fine quantum (€500k) on procedural lapses, reinforces liability for cash/ratio controls, and aligns with pattern of multi-million fines (e.g., CACEIS €3.5m), urging preemptive audits to mitigate enforcement risk.

Institutional AMF activity Appointment Journalists Appointments to the Legal Affairs Directorate and Enforcement Assistance Directorate of the Autorité des Marchés Financiers
This AMF publication announces internal appointments to its **Legal Affairs Directorate** and **Enforcement Assistance Directorate**, signaling potential enhancements in legal oversight and enforcement capabilities within France's financial markets regulator. Compliance professionals should note this as it may indicate a renewed focus on rigorous enforcement of market rules, though it imposes no direct regulatory changes on firms.
What Changed
There are no regulatory changes, new requirements, or policy updates in this announcement. It solely details personnel appointments within AMF's internal structure, specifically leadership roles in directorates handling legal affairs (e.g., Maxence Delorme as head of Legal Affairs Directorate) and enforcement assistance (e.g., Amélie du Passage as head of Instruction and Enforcement Assistance Directorate). These directorates support AMF's core functions like investigations, inspections, and sanction proceedings, but the publication does not alter any rules applicable to regulated entities.
Suggested Considerations
- *No specific actions are required for regulated firms, as this does not introduce obligations. Recommended monitoring steps for proactive compliance:
- Review ongoing AMF interactions (e.g., inspections) for potential shifts in approach under new directorate leadership.
- Update internal AMF contact lists with confirmed governance details from https://www.amf-france.org/en/amf/our-organisation/our-governance.
- Track AMF news releases for enforcement trends at https://www.amf-france.org/en/news-publications/news-releases/amf-news-releases.
Key Dates
- Appointment of Sébastien Raspiller as AMF Secretary General
- Ministerial order partially renewing AMF Enforcement Committee
- Publication of Enforcement Committee appointments
- Composition published in Official Journal
Compliance Impact
Urgency: Low. This matters peripherally for firms anticipating AMF enforcement, as new leaders in Legal Affairs and Enforcement Assistance could signal stricter scrutiny or faster processing of cases, similar to past leadership transitions (e.g., Secretary General appointment in 2023). However, absent policy shifts, it does not demand immediate compliance adjustments; monitor for signals in AMF's 2026 priorities announced 14 January 2026.

Sanctions & settlements Journalists The AMF to call for an amendment of the law on obstructing investigations and inspections
The AMF announced its intention to propose legislative amendments to the French Monetary and Financial Code following a January 28, 2022 Constitutional Council decision that found dual prosecution for obstructing AMF investigations and inspections unconstitutional. The amendment aims to eliminate the possibility of simultaneous administrative and criminal penalties for the same obstruction conduct, while preserving the AMF's enforcement authority.
What Changed
- The primary regulatory change addresses a constitutional violation regarding dual prosecution under the ne bis in idem principle:
- Current problem: The Monetary and Financial Code previously allowed both administrative sanctions by the AMF Enforcement Committee and criminal prosecution for identical obstruction conduct,...
- Proposed solution: Legislative amendments will eliminate the possibility of dual prosecution while maintaining the AMF's ability to sanction obstruction of investigations and inspections.
- Scope of obstruction conduct: The law covers refusal to allow access to documents, provide copies, communicate information, respond to summons, or grant access to professional premises during AMF...
Suggested Considerations
- *For compliance professionals and regulated entities:
- *Review cooperation policies: Ensure internal procedures for responding to AMF investigation and inspection requests comply with current legal requirements and anticipated amendments.
- *Monitor legislative developments: Track publication of proposed amendments in the French legislative process to understand final scope of changes.
- *Counsel on cooperation: Advise business units that obstruction remains sanctionable; the amendment eliminates dual penalties, not the underlying obligation to cooperate.
- *Document compliance: Maintain records demonstrating good-faith cooperation with AMF requests to support defense against obstruction allegations.
Key Dates
- Constitutional Council decision declaring dual prosecution unconstitutional
- Amendments appear to be in legislative proposal stage; no effective date yet announced
- AMF committed to proposing amendments "as soon as possible"
