Join regulators, financial institutions, compliance leaders, risk professionals and technology innovators for a high-level summit exploring how artificial intelligence is reshaping financial crime prevention, supervision and institutional readiness.
19 & 20 Aug 2026 | Intercontinental Hotel - Balaclava
The summit is presented as a strategic institutional platform bringing together regulatory, financial, compliance and technology perspectives.
Financial crime risks are evolving rapidly. Artificial intelligence, digital transactions, cross-border structures, virtual assets and new regulatory expectations are changing the way institutions must detect, assess, escalate and respond to risk.
This summit has been created to address the practical, regulatory and technological challenges that institutions must now prepare for.
The summit is structured around three core pillars designed to connect regulatory priorities, technological innovation and the future of the compliance profession.
The summit will feature regulators, senior industry leaders, technology specialists and financial crime experts who are shaping the future of compliance, supervision and AI-enabled financial integrity.

This signature session will allow delegates to see how AI can be used in practice to strengthen investigation workflows, improve case analysis and support compliance decision-making.
