NYC – Global AML & Sanctions Symposium
The NYC Global AML & Sanctions Symposium, subtitled Exploring the Evolution of Financial Crime in the Era of Strategic Competition, convened leaders from government, law enforcement and the private sector at the Thomson Reuters Building in Times Square.
Since the Bank Secrecy Act and RICO statute of 1970, U.S. financial crime policy has focused mainly on non-state actors. Today, authoritarian regimes in China, Russia, Iran and North Korea sit at the center of illicit finance networks in which cartels, terrorist groups and criminal syndicates use front companies, crypto obfuscation, export control violations and sanctions evasion to undermine global financial stability.
Through a keynote and four expert panels, the symposium covered:
- AML risk exposure amid rising global tensions and new national priorities
- The new face of AML and sanctions
- U.S. enforcement priorities
- Transforming AML with AI and data
- The future of crypto compliance
The NYC Global AML & Sanctions Symposium was hosted by the Coalition Against Financial Crime and offered five continuing education credits.
