Beyond Traditional AML: Building Smarter, More Effective Financial Crime Detection
Are traditional AML controls keeping pace with evolving financial crime? In this episode of the Transform Finance Podcast, Fabrice Deprez, CEO of Discai, explores why banks need to rethink transaction monitoring as criminals become increasingly adept at navigating existing controls.
Fabrice discusses the shift towards behaviour-based detection, how machine learning can strengthen existing scenarios and why adopting AI requires a gradual, explainable approach. He also examines how the EU’s Anti-Money Laundering Authority (AMLA) could reshape regulatory expectations and what stronger cross-bank collaboration could mean for financial crime prevention.
But with criminals adapting faster than traditional controls, can financial institutions transform quickly enough without compromising oversight and control?
