State Of The Nation Keynote Address

09:10 Demystify Europe’s Interconnected Risk Landscape To Stay Ahead Of AI, Technology, Regulation & Geopolitics Before They Collide

  • What does genuine resilience actually look like when regulation, technology and geopolitics start behaving more like one, complex, interconnected system?
  • A single, practical framework for prioritising the risks that matter most in 2027, not just the ones making the most noise
  • Most risk registers still treat compliance, technology and geopolitics as three different jobs but is the gap where the real exposure sits?

PANEL Q&A

09.30 Sharing Insights Into The Practicalities Of Implementing The EU AI Act & Where Risk & Accountability Actually Sits When AI Replaces Human Judgement

  • The EU AI Act is now fully live. The harder question is what high-risk classification actually means for tomorrow’s controls?
  • Is AI actually cutting false positives in transaction monitoring, financial crime prevention and KYC, or just producing a more expensive kind of noise?
  • Speed versus accountability: when an algorithm replaces a human analyst, who are leading institutions making responsible when it gets it wrong?Are enterprise-wide AI rollouts actually delivering promised cost savings?
  • Ensuring fairness, transparency and watertight oversight across AI decision-making processes in practice
  • What are the next generation of AI tools – from generative and predictive technologies, to ethical frameworks and cybersecurity risks from LLMs

10.00 Navigate The Transition To The AML Authority & Combat Financial Crime With Dynamic Compliance Frameworks

  • When AMLA moves at full speed, the institutions who are ready will be the ones who stopped waiting for the detail months ago
  • Stop treating KYC as a private, bank-by-bank exercise and hear the case for a shared industry approach instead
  • How hard is it, in practice, to coordinate sanctions and financial crime reporting to Financial Intelligence Units across several EU jurisdictions at once?
  • One institution’s unfiltered account of what their AML transition actually cost them, and exactly what they would do differently
  • Innovations in financial crime and fraud prevention across increasingly-complex threat landscapes – what’s on the horizon?
