Webinar: AML in Blockchain

The use of blockchain, crypto-currencies and NFT’s has surged in recent years with the blockchain technology market cited to grow at 62.73% CAGR through 2027 reaching $65B (ResearchAndMarkets.com). Add the post-pandemic transition of digital payments to mainstream use and its clear old-fashioned rules-based and supervised machine learning solutions will not be compliant with fiat to non-fiat money movement. When addressing the AML need for visibility of fiat and non-fiat money movement, it’s clear a new standard for trusted global transactions harnessing the true power of Artificial Intelligence is needed. This session will cover:
  • What are the main challenges and opportunities?
  • What is the regulatory approach?
  • How do institutions monitor risk today and combat anonymization?
  • What would an improved monitoring system look like?
