Consultation on the draft Financial Services (Disclosure and Provision of Information) (Jersey) Law 202-

Summary

This is a public consultation notice from the Government of Jersey (Office of the Chief Executive) inviting comments on a draft law, the Financial Services (Disclosure and Provision of Information) (Jersey) Law 202-. The draft law is intended to implement updated Financial Action Task Force (FATF) international standards on combating money laundering, terrorist financing and proliferation financing. The consultation itself does not impose binding requirements; it seeks stakeholder input before the law is finalised.

• Purpose: To gather views on draft legislation strengthening Jersey's AML/CFT legal framework in line with FATF standards.
• How to respond: Comments can be sent either to the Government of Jersey (Helen De La Cour, Financial Services and Digital Economy) or via Jersey Finance Limited, which is collating an industry response.
• Confidentiality: Responses sent to Jersey Finance will be shared with Government unless the respondent requests anonymity.
• Outcome: A Consultation Response and Policy Paper on the draft law was subsequently published, referenced on the same page.

As a consultation notice rather than enacted legislation, this document creates no ongoing compliance obligations for financial services businesses; it only records the consultation process, its dates, and how to participate.
