102: Are we fighting financial crime, or just ticking boxes?

The Laundry

Live from the Ministry of Sound in London!

What if we could combine all the knowledge from our industry into one powerful source? Connecting all that expertise, years of career experience, all those war stories, and secret knowledge together.

We used AI to compress 60 hours of podcasting, 80 experts, and 360,000 words of conversation into one AML Megamind AI. Then we put it to the test against the experts!

Our expert host, Marit Rødevand, is joined by Chloe Cina of RUSI, Jessica Cath of Thistle Initiatives, and Mitch Trehan of Allica Bank.

The panel discuss three provocative statements: "the compliance industry is more focused on box-ticking than truly fighting financial crime", "sanctions are great for headlines - but criminals use them as a roadmap", and "AI hasn't stopped criminals—it’s just made their jobs easier".
