Program
Fighting Financial Crime: How Banks Are Preparing for Information Sharing Partnerships
Hosted by Roseman Labs & spotixx
"Criminals collaborate across banks - so why don't we?"
Financial crime does not stop at the edge of one institution. Money launderers, fraudsters, and terrorist financiers move freely between banks - exploiting the blind spots that exist precisely because banks cannot see each other's data.
That is changing. New regulation - including PSR Art. 83 and AMLR Article 75 - is creating the legal foundation for structured Information Sharing Partnerships between banks. The question is no longer "can we collaborate?" but "how do we do it securely, compliantly, and at operational scale?"
In this power session, three senior executives from leading financial institutions in Germany, the Nordics and the Netherlands take the stage. Each represents a region at a different stage of building cross-bank collaboration, giving you a rare, unfiltered view of what it actually takes to get inter-bank AFC partnerships off the ground: the regulatory navigation, the data challenges, the organizational change, and what's already working in practice.
You will leave with a clear picture of where the industry is heading and a practical blueprint for how your organization can be part of it.
Who should attend:
Senior leaders across financial services - in financial crime, compliance, risk, and data - who want to move beyond isolated detection and understand how secure, compliant cross-institutional collaboration is being built in practice.
