ACAMS 18th AML & Anti-Financial Crime Conference 2023 - Europe | ACAMS | 22 May 2023 | The Convention Centre Dublin, Spencer Dock, N Wall Quay, North Dock, Dublin 1, D01 T1W6, Ireland

Our industry is accustomed to disruption by ever-advancing technologies. However, the biggest disruptor of the past 15 months has been Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Almost no aspect of Europe’s financial infrastructure has been left untouched by its fallout. How are AFC frameworks and AML programs, as well as sanctions policies and procedures, evolving in the wake of this conflict?

Additionally, the lingering effects of Brexit pose another challenge for coordinated AML/CFT efforts in Europe. Emerging risks and opportunities in the FinTech sector and the quickly expanding cryptoverse also require unprecedented responses.
