Spanish AML/CTF legislation is the result of the transposition of EU legislation on the subject, in particular, of Directive 2005/60/EC of the European Parliament and Council, of October 26, 2005, and Commission Directive 2006/70/EC of August 1, 2006, laying down the implementing provisions of the former. In Spain, Royal Decree-Law 12/2018 of 7 September on network and information system security transposes the Spanish legal system this Directive, with the aim of ‘regulating the security of networks and information systems used for the provision of essential and digital services, while establishing an institutional framework for coordination between competent authorities and with the relevant cooperation bodies at Community level.’
