Presentation: Risk-Based AML Framework: Moving beyond tick box compliance

As GIFT City evolves into a global financial hub, institutions must move beyond a checklist-driven approach and embed financial crime prevention into their governance, decision-making, and business practices. This presentation will highlight how AML can be embraced as an organisational value, and why building the right culture is critical to safeguarding trust, reputation, and long-term sustainability in the region.

Panel Discussion: The Evolving AML Landscape: Emerging Threats and Regulatory Expectations

The financial crime landscape is evolving rapidly, driven by digitalisation, cross-border financial activity, fraud ecosystems, and the increasing use of emerging technologies. This panel will examine key AML risks facing financial institutions today and discuss how regulatory expectations are adapting in response to these developments.

Presentation: Navigating Risks in Cross-Border Payments

Cross-border payments are the lifeblood of international financial centres, enabling the seamless movement of capital across jurisdictions. However, increasing geopolitical tensions, sanctions regimes, digital payment innovations, and evolving financial crime threats have significantly transformed the risk landscape. This presentation will examine the key AML/CFT, sanctions, fraud, and compliance challenges facing institutions engaged in cross-border payments and discuss strategies for building resilient, risk-based control frameworks in a global financial environment.

2.45 pm - 3.45 pm

Panel Discussion: Demonstrating AML Effectiveness: Priorities for GIFT City

Regulators are increasingly focused not just on the existence of AML controls, but on whether they deliver meaningful outcomes. This panel will explore what AML effectiveness looks like in practice and how GIFT City entities can strengthen governance, risk management, and compliance frameworks to meet evolving expectations.
