How New Regulations and Technologies Are Shaping Financial Crime Compliance

The financial crime compliance landscape is rapidly changing. Amid political upheaval and technological advances, the cost of compliance has become an integral part of business operations.

Traditional systems struggle to keep up with market changes, prompting move to more modern solutions, says RegTech company IA Napier.

Neobanks and FinTech companies are at the forefront, adopting cutting-edge technologies to stay competitive with traditional financial service providers who are now feeling the pressure. In 2024, global regulators are focusing on the challenges posed by digital currencies, with a pivot to artificial intelligence issues expected in 2025. This period marks a critical time to adapt to evolving compliance requirements.

Significant regulatory updates have played a key role in advancing financial crime compliance. The European AI Act, set to come into force in 2025, is expected to revolutionize the use of AI, with a focus on transparency and ethics in Europe. This law will likely strengthen the deployment of AI in financial crime compliance, ensuring that new technologies meet regulatory standards.

At the same time, the European Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), which came into force in January 2025, aims to strengthen the IT security of financial entities and insurance companies. This legislation aims to mitigate IT-related risks, such as those related to cyberattacks, through better information sharing and enhanced digital resilience.

Recent sanctions against Russia have led to new regulatory guidance in the EU and the US, strengthening compliance obligations. The EU has introduced tough penalties for violations of the sanctions, including possible imprisonment. As these rules apply to all EU Member States, companies must be rigorous in ensuring their compliance.

In the United States, the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) is actively improving the effectiveness of sanctions, emphasizing the need for strong entity control mechanisms to maintain compliance.

In the future, transaction tracking will become crucial. While many institutions have refined their Know Your Customer (KYC) processes, transaction tracking presents new challenges due to its complexity. Advances in AI and the development of a comprehensive typology library are essential to navigate these complexities.

Regulatory sandboxes have proven essential to fostering innovation, with countries such as Spain, the UK and Singapore leading initiatives to refine regulated datasets for financial crime typologies. Generative AI is also emerging as a critical technology, albeit one that requires significant levels of data reliability and explainability.

Collaboration between the private and public sectors is expected to increase, particularly in Australia, where banks are exploring the use of generative AI to combat financial crime. However, data laws currently limit its full implementation.

There is a strong call for better coordination and data sharing to improve the detection and prevention of new methods of financial crime. While the need for increased collaboration has been a long-standing topic of discussion, substantial regulatory adjustments are needed to facilitate and encourage these partnerships.

As the financial industry evolves at a rapid pace amidst ever-changing technology and stringent regulatory requirements, embracing innovation is critical. By leveraging new technologies, financial institutions can not only meet compliance requirements, but also move the industry forward into a new era of transparency and resilience.
