An electronic money institution, commonly called an EMI, is an authorised financial business permitted to issue electronic money and provide related payment services under the applicable regulatory framework. An EMI typically needs appropriate governance, safeguarding arrangements, risk management, AML controls, policies, procedures, and operational resources. The precise requirements depend on the proposed activities, jurisdiction, business model, and regulatory expectations.
