E158: What is the AML industry wrestling with RIGHT NOW?

The latest edition of AML Arena in Helsinki brought together law enforcement, regulators, fintechs, and big banks all in the same room.

Rather than letting all that knowledge walk out the door, we grabbed three of the day's speakers for an on-stage round-up session!

Our expert host, Marit Rødevand is joined by Aisling Twomey, Head of FinCrime, Business Banking, EU, Sanctions & U16s at Monzo; Ina Johanson, Head of AML and Sanctions & AML Operative Responsible at SEB; and Sara Helin, Country Responsible for Fraud Intelligence at Nordea — together tackling the question: What is the AML industry wrestling with RIGHT NOW?

The panel discuss: what they want from regulators, the threats keeping them up at night, and whether they're looking for more or less guidance from above.

Producer: Matthew Dunne-Miles

Editor: Dominic Delargy
