Overview
Novel technologies and developments in cryptography, tokenization and programmability offer the possibility of new business models and new forms of digital money and payment systems. These innovations and business models open the door to major improvements in payment services and the development of new services through greater payment automation. However, with innovation and development come new risks. Criminals are often ahead of the game when it comes to exploiting new technology to commit illegal activity and hide the proceeds. This webinar will consider how horizon scanning can help detect, assess and manage risks. At the same time, it can provide opportunities for highlighting future threats and managing financial crime risk through early mitigations and policies.
