Courses/The 2027 AML package
Available now. Complete, all four modules published

The 2027 AML package: a gap analysis for your entity

Regulation (EU) 2024/1624 applies from 10 July 2027 and replaces much of what you do today with directly applicable rules. What direct applicability does to the citations in your own procedures, the three figures from the package that are quoted wrongly almost every time, which of the two roles of the AMLA will ever reach your entity, what harmonised due diligence costs a group, the training obligation extended beyond your employees, and the gap analysis itself: eight rows, four columns, sequenced by lead time rather than by importance. Module 7 of the AML course covers the same package in three lessons; this is the long form of it.

List price 149 euros The price the course is sold at once enrolment has opened.
Founder price 99 euros Held for people who registered before enrolment opened. It is a lower price for the same course, not a smaller version of it.
Delivery Complete Available now and complete. All four modules are published in full, together with the end-of-course assessment. The delivery commitment was 30 November 2026; the course was delivered on 26 August 2026.
Access 12 months Access for 12 months from the date of enrolment, including every update published during that period. Updates are published under a dated content version, and the version you were trained against stays on your certificate.
Enrolment opens shortly

No payment is taken anywhere on this site and no card details are collected. Registering your interest costs nothing and commits you to nothing.

Content version: 23 August 2026

All four modules are open to read and watch in full while enrolment is being prepared. Lesson 1.1 needs nothing at all; the rest needs a free account.

Three courses are published today, all three complete. This is a new project and the catalogue is deliberately small. Everything published has been written from primary sources and is dated.

Why this course exists

Most of what you do survives the transition. The work is in the part that does not

The first problem

Regulation (EU) 2024/1624 applies from 10 July 2027 without a Luxembourg law in between. Almost every obligation you carry is restated rather than removed, but every procedure, policy and template you own cites Luxembourg provisions that will no longer carry the obligation, and nobody is going to do that renumbering for you.

The second problem

Regulation (EU) 2024/1624 applies from 10 July 2027 and parts of the framework around it do not exist yet: delegated acts and technical standards are still to come, and Directive (EU) 2024/1640 still has to be transposed into Luxembourg law. This course states which of its rows rest on the text as adopted and which rest on an instrument that is still being written, and it does not present a recital as an obligation.

If you already own the AML course

Module 7 of the AML and KYC course covers this same 2027 package in three lessons: what direct applicability changes, the two roles of the AMLA, and a gap analysis sequenced by lead time. This course is the long form of that module. If you own the AML course you already have the summary, and what you are buying here is the detail, the worked gap analysis and its own assessments and certificates. Module 7 is at lesson 7.1.

Currency

Content written from the primary sources. Each instrument carries its own verification date in the source register. Content version: 23 August 2026. The instruments this course relies on were verified on 26 August 2026 and each one carries that date in the source register.

What you get

Six things, and each one is finished for all four modules

Nothing here is a placeholder and nothing is still to come. What is described below exists now, for the whole course.

01

Twelve video lessons

All four modules in short lessons, 28:40 of video in total, each lesson built around a single thing you can put in the table and act on.

02

Full written transcripts

Every lesson has the narration in full as a readable article, so you can read the module instead of watching it, or follow both at once.

03

An assessment for each module, and a final one

Eight questions per module, pass mark 6. On passing you get a printable certificate carrying your name, the course title, the module, the date and the module runtime. The course closes with a twenty question end-of-course assessment across all four modules, pass mark 14 of 20, which is 70 percent. It opens once all four module assessments are passed, and passing it issues a course completion certificate.

04

Every legal source linked to its official text

Each lesson ends with its sources, each one resolving to the official text on EUR-Lex, on Legilux or on cssf.lu. Every instrument this course uses is entered in the source register with its own verification date.

05

A course that says which parts are not written yet

Delegated acts, technical standards and the Luxembourg transposition of the Directive do not exist yet. This course names the rows that wait on them rather than pretending the plan is complete.

06

The gap assessment worksheet

The structured worksheet against Regulation (EU) 2024/1624, with current position, required position, owner and target date for each change. It saves what you type against your organisation, exports as CSV and prints through the browser.

Syllabus

Four modules

All four modules are published in full, twelve lessons in all, 28 minutes 40 seconds of video. Lesson 1.1 is open to everyone with no account. The remaining eleven lessons, the reading version and the assessments need a free account, so that your progress, your results and your certificates are recorded against your name. The course closes with an end-of-course assessment drawing on all four modules; it is not a module of its own, and it opens once all four module assessments have been passed.

Module 1. What actually changes

What direct applicability does to the citations in your own procedures, the three figures from the package that are quoted wrongly almost every time, and how to sort the whole thing into the pile that is a restatement and the pile that is genuinely new.

Lesson 1.3 What is actually new, and what is a restatement Sorting the package into two piles, so that you neither rebuild a framework that did not need rebuilding nor miss the handful of things that really change. Account needed · 2:28

Module 2. The AMLA

The two roles of the new authority and which of them will ever reach your entity, the difference between being eligible for consideration and being selected, and the convergence that has already started through the questions your supervisor asks.

StatusPublished LessonsThree Video6:39

Lesson 2.1 Two roles, and only one of them will ever visit you The AMLA has two roles. One reaches a small number of selected entities and the other reaches everybody, and conflating them is what produces the noise. Account needed · 2:15
Lesson 2.2 Selection, and how to answer the board Eligibility is not selection. The one sentence you need to be able to say at a board meeting, and what it costs to establish it. Account needed · 2:08
Lesson 2.3 Convergence starts with the questions The supervisor is already collecting information about you on European templates. What that does to your answers, and why it is a data problem before it is a policy one. Account needed · 2:16

Module 3. What changes in substance

Harmonised due diligence and what a group loses when national variation closes, the training obligation documented in its realisation and extended beyond your employees, and the fund and management company overlap that a recital looks at without deciding.

Lesson 3.3 The fund and the management company A fund and its management company are both in scope and the work happens once. What the recital says about that, and what a recital is not. Account needed · 2:29

Module 4. Running the gap analysis

The table itself: four columns, about eight rows, every one of them already met in this course, the sequencing rule that decides whether the plan produces anything at all, and how the analysis stays alive through the delegated acts still to come and is summarised to a board in five minutes.

Lesson 4.3 Keeping it alive, and what to tell the board The analysis has to survive fifteen months of delegated acts and transposition, and it has to be sayable in five minutes to a board. Account needed · 2:58

Final item. The end-of-course assessment

Not a module, and last in the course. Twenty questions across all four modules, pass mark 14 of 20, which is 70 percent. Available once the four module assessments have been passed. Passing issues a course completion certificate that records the content version, the runtime of 28 minutes 40 seconds across twelve lessons, and the four module titles.

AssessmentWhat it coversAccess
Final End-of-course assessment Eight scenarios taken from the module assessments and reworded to stand alone, two from each of the four modules, and twelve questions written for this assessment alone, each of which needs two modules held together. Every answer is marked with the reason it is right or wrong, and the result is broken down module by module. Account needed · 20 questions · Pass mark 14
Prerequisite All four module assessments passed The route is not hidden. Open it early and it tells you which modules remain and links you to each one. Four of four

Module 1 runs 7 minutes 22 seconds, Module 2 runs 6 minutes 39 seconds, Module 3 runs 7 minutes 06 seconds and Module 4 runs 7 minutes 33 seconds, which is 28 minutes 40 seconds of video across twelve lessons. The course closes with an end-of-course assessment of 20 questions drawing on all four modules at a pass mark of 14, which is 70 percent, and which is not a module of its own.

Artefacts

The worksheet the course is built around

This course does not publish artefacts of its own. It uses the two the AML course already publishes, because every row of both is built from the same instruments. They sit inside the course area behind a free account, they print to PDF through your browser, and each one carries the content version and states that it is a working template rather than legal advice.

Two artefacts, shared with the AML course

The gap assessment saves what you type against your organisation, so it can be filled in over several sittings, exported as CSV and printed as a dated, signed off document. The source register is a reference table with nothing to fill in.

ArtefactWhat it isBehaviour

Artefact 2 Source registerEvery instrument the catalogue relies on in one table, with its date, its official reference, the modules that use it and a flag on the ones known to change. Print

How this course is built

The same four checks were applied to every claim in all four modules before they were recorded.

Read against the text

Every article number cited was checked against the Official Journal text of the Regulation, not against a summary of it.

A recital is not an obligation

Where the course rests on a recital rather than on an article, it says so and stops short of stating a rule.

What is not written yet is named

Delegated acts, technical standards and the national transposition are identified as pending rather than described as if they existed.

Sources linked, not listed

Each source resolves to its official page on EUR-Lex, Legilux or cssf.lu, so you can check the course against the instrument.

Who this is for

Compliance officers, conducting officers, in-house counsel and fund and ManCo staff who will have to answer, in 2026 and 2027, what the package changes for this entity and what is being done about it. It assumes you already work under the Luxembourg framework.

What the course leaves you with

The ability to say what direct applicability changes and what it does not, what the citation work in your own documents amounts to, the three figures stated the way the text states them rather than the way they are repeated, which parts of the package are a restatement and which are genuinely new, which of the two roles of the AMLA reaches your entity and which does not, the difference between being eligible for consideration and being selected, what the European data collection templates are already doing to the answers you give, what harmonisation costs a group and in which direction, what the training obligation now covers and who is in it beyond your payroll, what a recital does and does not oblige between a fund and its manager, the eight rows of the gap analysis, and how to sequence them so the plan produces something.

How to work through it

Watch or read the twelve lessons in order, take the eight question assessment at the end of each module, then close with the end-of-course assessment. It takes an evening, and the output is a filled in worksheet rather than a set of notes.

Your next step

Lesson 1.1 is open to everyone, with no account. Start there, then create a free account to carry on through the remaining lessons, the assessments and the certificates.

The whole course is open now
