Bold intelligence: AI’s expanding role in AML & fraud
2:00 PM ET / 1:00 PM CT
Artificial intelligence is fundamentally reshaping financial crime prevention—across both fraud and BSA/AML—accelerating institutions’ ability to detect, investigate, and respond at scale, while simultaneously arming bad actors with more sophisticated tools. This session examines AI’s dual impact on the modern financial crime landscape, from advancing fraud detection, investigations, and AML monitoring through machine learning, chat-based prompt AI, and innovations like AskAbrigo, to the rapid evolution of threats such as deepfakes, synthetic identities, and authorized push payment scams.
Beyond the technology, we’ll explore what it takes to operationalize AI with intent—how leading institutions are breaking down silos between fraud and AML, building governance frameworks that keep pace with innovation, and balancing efficiency with explainability and trust. Attendees will leave with a forward-looking perspective on how to deploy AI responsibly, align teams and data strategies, and stay ahead in an increasingly adversarial, AI-driven environment.
