This article was first featured in GIR as part of the ‘Europe, Middle East and Africa Investigations Review 2024’ co-authored by A&M Senior Director Kallia Gavela and Bernitsas Law Partner Christos Paraskevopoulos.
In summary
This article summarises the recent developments in anti-bribery and anti-money laundering (AML) legislation in Greece and the key implications and challenges for businesses.

We also examine the European Union’s AML legislative package and how it is likely to affect the AML regime in Greece.
