Risk Assessment Techniques for Financial Crime Management - Conversation with Anthony Quinn - Arctic Intelligence

4/5/2023

0 Comments

 
​Money laundering and terrorism financing laws apply to millions of businesses, across 30+ industry sectors, and in over 200 Financial Action Task Force (FATF) member countries. And yet, there is no industry standard on how businesses should apply the risk-based approach (RBA) when developing Enterprise-wide money laundering and terrorism financing risk assessments.
 
Many organisations struggle to identify and assess their risks and vulnerabilities to financial crime and as a result may not design, implement and maintain controls that are appropriate and proportionate to these risks.  More often than not enterprise-wide risk assessments (EWRAs) are conducted manually on spreadsheets, which are often not fit for purpose and take too long to complete, resulting in risks being presented to Boards that are more likely than not, out of date.
 
In this episode of RegTech Round-up, Charlene Sebastian, Head of Client Success at MinervaAI and strategic advisor to the Canadian RegTech Association (CRTA), talks with Anthony Quinn, Founder and CEO of Arctic Intelligence, a multi-award-winning RegTech firm specializing in software for enterprise-wide audit, compliance, and risk management related to financial crime, about how firms can dramatically simplify the EWRA by maximising their data and using technology to automate the process; to reduce residual risk exposure and be more strategic in the application of enterprise risk controls to improve operational processes, remove bias and drive revenue. Anthony also highlights key findings from the Arctic Intelligence 2022 AML Industry Benchmarking report.

March is Fraud Prevention month!
 Digital Identification Verification (IDV) technologies play a critical role in preventing and detecting identity fraud. Through document verification and liveness checks, IDV solutions can be used to address a number of regulatory identification and know your customer requirements. 

While embraced by many digital banks and cryptocurrency exchanges, as part of a frictionless customer on-boarding experience and to automate key anti-money laundering (AML) requirements; traditional banking, wealth management services and credit unions have been slower to implement IDV solutions, citing cost, accuracy and complexity challenges.
 
In this episode of RegTech Round-up, Charlene Sebastian,  strategic advisor with the Canadian RegTech Association (CRTA) and Head of Client Success at MinervaAI, chats with Gene DiMira, a Canadian Anti-Money Laundering and Digital Identity pioneer, and Leigh Day, Business Development Manager for Yoti, a leading digital identity provider, about IDV: what it is (and what it’s not), and how you can seamlessly meet critical regulatory requirements. We also demystify some of the key challenges and perceived barriers to implementation and discuss how to prepare for a successful IDV launch.
