Date of Event

Description

Event Description

Experts in Anti-Money Laundering and Risk Management techniques in financial institutions discuss the use of bulk data analysis to monitor transactions occurring within financial institutions. These sophisticated surveillance techniques use various modeling techniques to identify the flow of transactions that may be the proceeds of criminal activity. The leads, or alerts, generated by this analysis, are investigated and reported to FinCEN to be forwarded to law enforcement for criminal investigations. The panel will discuss current analytical operations and emerging trends to make the models more predictive of future criminal activity.
