Conference Theme 2026: Navigating the Future of Financial Integrity: AML, FinCrime, Technology and Global Risks

Day 1 – EU AML Architecture, AMLA & Supervisory Strategy

Day 1 focuses on the new EU AML architecture and its real-world implementation, with a central spotlight on AMLA’s role, supervisory convergence and cross-border cooperation in the Nordic-Baltic region.

The programme brings together EU-level strategy (AMLA), national supervision (FSA) and financial intelligence (FIU) to explore how regulation translates into practice.

Key sessions cover: AMLA’s supervisory framework and expectations; Nordic-Baltic supervisory coordination; National supervisory strategy and MiCA implementation; MONEYVAL methodology and upcoming AMLD6 evaluations; From evaluation to enforcement: lessons from Latvia and implications for the Baltics; Cross-border FinTech, payments and regulatory arbitrage risks.

The day bridges policy, supervision and market reality, providing clarity on how AML/CFT frameworks will operate in practice in an increasingly cross-border and technology-driven financial system.

Day 2 – Digital Resilience, Fraud & Financial Crime Enforcement

Day 2 shifts the focus to FinCrime, fraud prevention, cyber resilience and enforcement, reflecting the rapidly evolving threat landscape driven by digitalisation, AI and instant payments.

The programme covers the full chain from EU strategy → national action → operational execution.

The afternoon deep-dives into crypto and virtual assets. The day provides a practical, execution-focused view on how financial crime is detected, investigated and prosecuted.

Both Days – Technology, Data & the Future of Financial Crime Prevention

Across both days, the programme highlights how technology, data and innovation are reshaping AML and FinCrime frameworks, including: AI-driven risk detection and analytics; Digital payments, instant payments and fraud risks; Crypto-assets and blockchain intelligence; RegTech and supervisory technology; Data-driven decision-making e.t.c.

The agenda reflects a shift from reactive compliance to proactive, intelligence-led supervision and enforcement, enabling authorities and market participants to respond more effectively to global and cross-border financial crime risks.
