Main Stage

Tackling Today’s Financial Crime Challenges Through Innovation and Collaboration

As financial crime grows more complex, data-driven and instantaneous, organisations must continuously evolve their capabilities to detect, prevent and respond to emerging threats. From real-time fraud and sanctions evasion to the misuse of new technologies, the risk landscape is shifting faster than ever.

Join us in the Main Stage plenary as we explore the key challenges facing financial crime teams today, and the strategies, technologies and regulatory developments shaping the future of prevention and compliance.

Collective Defense

No institution can tackle financial crime in isolation. Increasingly sophisticated criminal networks and cross-border threats are driving greater collaboration between financial institutions, regulators and law enforcement to improve intelligence sharing and collective resilience.

AI at Scale

Artificial intelligence is moving beyond experimentation and becoming a strategic enabler of financial crime transformation. The challenge now lies in embedding AI across the financial crime lifecycle while delivering measurable value and maintaining robust governance.

Resilience by Design

As financial ecosystems expand through embedded finance, digital wallets and cross-border instant payments, resilience must be engineered into systems rather than layered on top. Institutions are prioritising adaptive controls, automated decisioning, and continuously learning risk models that can respond to rapidly evolving fraud and laundering typologies.

Financial Crime in Digital Ecosystems

The growth of digital assets, embedded finance and interconnected payment ecosystems is reshaping financial crime risk. Institutions must adapt to new vulnerabilities and emerging typologies while maintaining effective controls in increasingly complex environments.
