• 136: Can embedded AI change financial crime prevention forever?

  When we think about AI solutions, we picture them as disconnected from the systems and tools you're using every day.But for many in banking and compliance, this feels like a misstep.There's a growing belief that true innovation shouldn't require you to go searching for it. Instead, it should come directly to where you already are!Our expert host, Marit Rødevand, is joined by Jeeva Moni, Partner at EY, to ask: Can embedded AI change financial crime prevention forever? The pair discuss: what we mean by embedded AI, how embedded AI works in practice in financial crime prevention, and the biggest challenges to making it happen.Producer: Matthew Dunne-MilesEditor: Dominic DelargyEngineer: Nicholas Thon____________________________________The Laundry podcast explores the complex world of financial crime, anti-money laundering (AML), compliance, sanctions, and global financial regulation.Hosted by Marit Rødevand, Fredrik Riiser, and Robin Lycka, each episode features in-depth conversations with leading experts from banking, fintech, regulatory bodies, and investigative journalism.Tune in as we dissect headline news, unpack regulatory trends, and examine the real-world consequences of non-compliance — all through a uniquely compliance-focused lens.The Laundry is proudly produced by Strise.Get in touch at: [email protected] to our newsletter, Fresh Laundry, here.

• E135: Will Trump’s new sanctions on Russia work – or is this more box-ticking? [Re-Spin]

  We all saw the handshakes – but Trump's meeting with Putin in Alaska has yet to see a peace deal signed and an end to the invasion of Ukraine. Now, it’s being reported that the US is considering a new wave of sanctions on Russia’s financial enablers – looking at secondary countries acting as middle men. Trump also wants to see more action from the EU – demanding trade tariffs on India and China as well as a quicker end to the EU importing Russian energy. All of this goes to show that cutting one country out of the financial system is NOT. EASY. AT. ALL. In the re-spin (originally published in November 2024) our expert host Marit Rødevand is joined by Chloe Cina of RUSI, Jessica Cath of Thistle Initiatives, and Mitch Trehan of Allica Bank.The panel discuss three provocative statements: "the compliance industry is more focused on box-ticking than truly fighting financial crime", "sanctions are great for headlines - but criminals use them as a roadmap", and "AI hasn't stopped criminals—it’s just made their jobs easier".Will Trump's new sanctions package bring an end to the war in Ukraine – or are we still just ticking boxes?
