VideoBiden’s Radical Agenda? Jim Richards on the Implications for the Fight Against FinCrime
The Biden Presidency – less than six months old – has been a surprise to many who expected that the vicissitudes of the past four years and the challenges of the pandemic would lead to a period of stability over change. Instead, President Biden seems to have decided to take a different approach, pushing forward with far-reaching economic policies such as the extensive COVID-19 relief act.

VideoCultural Capital - Can we achieve a positive FinCrime ‘compliance culture’?
For most of the last decade, regulators have encouraged financial institutions to instil a positive compliance culture amongst staff to help ensure that they meet their FinCrime obligations. ‘Tone from the top’ is a phrase that has often been invoked to emphasise the need for business leaders to lead the way for their teams in this.

VideoThe Last Lines of Defence - Strengthening the professions’ fight against FinCrime
Most public attention on the private sector’s efforts against FinCrime is devoted to the role of financial institutions, and in particular, banks. This is quite logical, given the centrality of their roles as the gatekeepers of the financial system, and the parts they have unwittingly played in moving illicit funds around the global economy.

VideoMoving the Needle - Defining, measuring, and improving FinCrime effectiveness
Many key players in the FinCrime world have been seeking to define the term ‘effectiveness’.

VideoTransforming Compliance into Risk Management. A presentation by Michael Rasmussen
Regulators consistently talk about the need for a ‘risk-based approach’ to financial crime, and many organisations have created ‘risk management’ functions to complement, and in some cases replace, legacy compliance functions. This shift is based on a recognition that it is not just what you do, it is how you do it that matters. Financial criminals are agile and reflexive, and those that seek to stop them need to be so in response.

But, is this change here to stay? Or will the landscape return to normal as vaccines roll out worldwide.
