Twin Cities Global AML & Sanctions Symposium

The Twin Cities Global AML & Sanctions Symposium was the inaugural edition of the Global AML & Sanctions Symposium in the Twin Cities area of Minnesota, bringing together financial crime experts from several sectors to tackle the most pressing AML and sanctions challenges.
As financial criminals continuously exploit weaknesses in compliance programs, staying ahead of evolving threats demands cutting-edge technology, actionable intelligence and robust investigative tools. The symposium gathered experts from financial institutions, regulatory agencies and law enforcement at Thomson Reuters HQ in Eagan.
Through a keynote and three expert panels, the symposium covered:
- Insights from a retired FBI Special Agent
- Enhanced due diligence
- Suspicious activity reporting
- Transforming AML with AI and data
The Twin Cities Global AML & Sanctions Symposium was hosted by the Coalition Against Financial Crime and offered four continuing education credits.
