The forum brought together 100+ leaders from a variety of international organisations to discuss the future of AML/CFT supervision and disruption frameworks.
The forum focused on the convergence of 3 key challenges in disrupting financial crime:
- Supervised entities: The number of regulated entities and sectors continues to grow, placing greater pressure on supervisory authorities;
- Information sharing: The growing value of private-to-private and public-private information sharing is challenging traditional compliance programme structures and shifting focus towards effective outcomes; and
- Artificial Intelligence (AI): The rapid adoption and accessibility of AI is enhancing capabilities across the public and private sectors, while also creating new threats and opportunities.
✅ Financial institutions should integrate emerging technologies, AI-enabled controls, cross-border information sharing and effectiveness-based KPIs into financial crime risk management and supervisory engagement strategies.
