Overview

This session brings together young professionals and experienced industry experts to discuss the weaknesses of the current anti-financial crime (AFC) framework and offer fresh perspectives on its future. Drawing on their practical experience, participants will assess the real-world effectiveness of existing AML, CTF, and sanctions regimes, highlighting where the framework falls short and which policy innovations could help bridge these gaps. Bringing together voices from industry, regulators, and policymaking communities, the discussion will explore practical pathways toward a more outcomes-focused, and effective AFC ecosystem. The session will be followed by a drinks reception.  

For this event, FLIFF is partnering with the Young Financial Crime Professionals Network, offering participants an opportunity to connect with peers from both communities and expand professional networks. 

A huge ‘thank you’ to Napier AI for sponsoring post-roundtable networking drinks.
