The Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF) ensures the prudential and AML/CFT supervision of Luxembourg’s financial sector, VASPs and some TCSPs.
VASPs that do not hold any other license of financial sector professional (i.e. “pure VASPs”) are only supervised from an AML/CFT perspective by the CSSF. However, VASPs that hold another license such as also banks, PIs or EMIs are actually also supervised from a prudential point of view by the CSSF.

The Commissariat aux Assurances (CAA) ensures the prudential and AML/CFT supervision of Luxembourg’s insurance sector which includes professionals of the insurance sector providing TCSP services (PSA).

The Registration Duties, Estates and VAT Authority (AED) is Luxembourg’s AML/CFT supervisor for real estate agents, accounting professionals, some TCSPs (business/office centres and professional directors not supervised by another supervisory authority or SRB), the casino, freeport operators, DPMS and some dealers in high value goods. The AED also oversees VAT and taxes, duties and charges relating to the legal circulation of goods.

Dedicated SRBs supervise for AML/CFT purposes the legal professions (lawyers by the Luxembourg Bar Association (OAL), Diekirch Bar Association (OAD) [1]; notaries by the Chamber of Notaries (CdN)), chartered professional accountants by the Order of Chartered Professional Accountants (OEC) and (approved) statutory auditors and audit firms by the Institute of Statutory Auditors (IRE).
[1] The OAL is the Bar Association for lawyers and law firms in Luxembourg City, while the OAD is the Bar Association for lawyers and law firms in Diekirch. The OAL supervises around 3,112 lawyers. The OAD represents a small fraction of the profession (around 1,6 %). The OAD practice almost exclusively in the field of litigation, and does not offer TCSP activities.
