The list of Acts on the homepage consists of the most important Hungarian pieces
of legislation relevant to the combating of money laundering and terrorist financing.
The Hungarian Financial Supervisory Authority draws the attention of the attendants
of its website that the list of Acts is not comprehensive i.e. does not cover
neither all the relevant Acts nor the supplementary lower level legislation. Furthermore,
the texts of the Acts and the Decrees do not mean official translation of the
Hungarian laws. They are available only for information purposes and due to this
fact are not meant to render any legal opinion.
