LEVERAGING AI FOR SMARTER AML DETECTION

Financial crime is changing fast—and tech is making it even crazier.

New rules, new scams, AI deepfakes, crypto hacks… it feels like there’s something new every week. In this half-day session, we’re breaking it all down—what’s happening right now, what’s coming next, and what you actually need to do about it.

Did you know some scammers are already using AI like ChatGPT to write super convincing phishing emails or even fake identities using deepfakes? Wild, right?

We’ll dive into how tools like AI and machine learning are helping compliance teams catch fraud faster, monitor transactions smarter, and spot risks before they turn into major problems.

But it’s not all good news because we’ll also talk about how criminals are using the same tech against us.
Think AI-powered scams, deepfake IDs, cyber money laundering, and shady stuff happening with crypto and NFTs.

It’s going to be real, practical, and full of examples you can actually use. Not just theory or boring slides.
Whether you live and breathe compliance or you’re just trying to keep up, this session will help you make sense of the chaos—and stay a few steps ahead.
