About Us:
Welcome to The Canadian Institute’s 21st Annual Canadian Forum on Anti-Money Laundering and Financial Crime.

Never has this event been timelier and more important, as preventing and detecting suspicious financial activity has become increasingly challenging and complex, with more sophisticated criminals armed with increasingly advanced technologies and know-how.

The combination of this with rapidly evolving regulations and the growing need for the adoption of advanced technology and practices to keep up with emerging risks makes this a must-attend event.
