Securing the future of finance: Real-time collaboration against illicit activity in the digital asset ecosystem

Illicit crypto flows are growing more complex and AML playbooks need to keep up. This roundtable with global crypto platforms, financial institutions, blockchain intelligence and regulators tackles the real-world risks, gaps and investigations shaping the response to financial crime today.

The conversation will explore:

  • How real-time data sharing and international coordination can enhance the detection and disruption of illicit activity across borders.
  • What effective and forward-looking regulation looks like in an ecosystem defined by speed, decentralisation, and constant change.
  • How regulators and industry can work together to build common standards, align incentives, and reinforce trust in digital finance
