Market driven

Regulatory needs Regulatory requirements

for financial firms’ ability to detect money laundering continue to mount. The price of failure is hefty fines (banks worldwide have paid several billion dollars in fines for AML lapses since 2010), embarrassing headlines, and potential liability for the firm’s chief AML officer in the form of personal fines and even jail time.

Innovation needs Innovation

in financial services is creating an ever-growing attack surface. Faster payments and the increasing electronification of payment flows create utility for businesses, but criminals benefit from these innovations as well.

Customer expectations Customers’ expectations

for a smooth and easy experience put pressure on firms to reduce lag time and friction across the customer life cycle. These expectations start at the onboarding process and extend throughout the customer journey.

Historical technology upgrading pressure Legacy technology

that produces high volumes of alerts, false positives, and often false negatives compounds the challenges that banks face. Banks often have to throw bodies at the problem to keep up with alert volume. This is not only expensive but often problematic in terms of finding skilled analysts to fill these positions.

Public opinion pressure Social pressure

from citizens who feel that banks, as trusted custodians, have an ethical obligation to detect and intercede in money laundering, human trafficking, and fraud incidents

market trends Trends

Criminal attack technology against banks is constantly upgrading Escalating criminal attacks on banks use advanced technology.

Organized crime rings, rogue nations, and terrorists are all leveraging automation and artificial intelligence in their attacks on the financial ecosystem. These sophisticated attacks, combined with the growing volume of electronic payments, make it ifficult for FIs to keep pace with the rising tide of alerts.

Regulators want financial institutions to upgrade their technology to help them better improve their intelligence capabilities Regulators are encouraging FIs to use more sophisticated detection techniques.

Especially in the AML arena, concern over regulatory response to the use of advanced analytics has been an inhibitor to adoption. The new openness among regulators is encouraging FIs to invest in technology that can help them extract intelligence from their customer data.

Banks want to improve operational efficiency Banks are looking for operational efficiencies.

While many FIs initially turned to outsourcing first- and secondlevel alert triage to less expensive offshore locations, the benefits of these strategies were short-lived, as alert volumes continue to multiply. Many banks are now focused on tackling the source of the issue—dirty source data and high levels of false-positive alerts.

The adoption of new technologies creates competitive advantages for banks and other financial enterprises Adoption of next-generation financial crime technology is creating competitive differentiation.

Firms that use advanced technologies to vet customers’ identities and transactions differentiate themselves from their competitors, as they provide more responsive and streamlined customer interactions, improve their operational efficiency, and meet regulatory requirements.
