The fraudsters have already figured out what most financial institutions haven't yet: silos don't work. While your fraud team, cyber team and compliance team operate independently with separate tools and data, criminals are exploiting the gaps between them at an industrial scale.
This is part two of two special episodes recorded live at the WTF? Summit in Singapore. Host Thomas Taraniuk sits down with T Raja Kumar, former president of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), Holly Fang from the Singapore FinTech Association, and Pasi Koistinen, CISO at Coinhako, to discuss what happens when AI becomes both weapon and shield in the fight against financial crime.
T Raja Kumar reveals why cutting off money flows matters more than raiding scam compounds, Holly Fang explains why ASEAN's fragmented data sharing laws are a fraudster's playground, and Pasi Koistinen makes the case that your separate fraud, cyber and compliance systems are exactly what criminals count on. From satellite connected fraud as a service operations to the uncomfortable truth that compliance teams lack the AI skills they desperately need, this conversation cuts through the optimism.
If Part 1 was about cross industry collaboration, Part 2 is about getting your own house in order first. Because before you can share threat data across borders, you need to share it across your own departments.

Cryptocurrency didn't invent financial fraud, but it changed how money moves and how criminals exploit it. Now, with new US legislation on the table, the industry faces a bigger question: can a system built on decentralization ever become trusted infrastructure?
