Juan-Manuel Vega Serrano brings over three decades of experience in public service, with a career dedicated to anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorist financing (CFT). A senior member of Spain’s higher civil service since 1992, Mr. Vega Serrano has held several prominent roles in shaping AML/CFT policy both nationally and internationally.
His previous positions include serving as AML/CFT regulator at the Spanish Treasury, Head of Spain’s AML/CFT Supervisory Authority and Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU), and President of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF).
As Vice-Chair, Mr. Vega Serrano will support AMLA’s mission to strengthen the EU’s AML/CFT framework.
We were honored to welcome Minister for Finance of Ireland, Paschal Donohoe, to our offices at AMLA this week.
It’s a real privilege to host a leader so deeply engaged in shaping Europe’s financial future. We’re especially grateful for Ireland’s continued support and for having such a committed and collaborative partner in the Eurogroup.
Moments like this reaffirm the importance of strong partnerships across the EU—and inspire us to keep building an effective, trusted, and forward-looking AMLA.
