PLENARY PRESENTATION: OUTLINING THE DIGITAL OPERATIONAL RESILIENCE ACT (DORA) AND THE ROLE COMPLIANCE LEADERSHIP SHOULD TAKE IN IT’S IMPLEMENTATION
Iris Tasevski -
Program Manager Digital Decade & Senior Legal Counsel,
ICTRecht
With the risks associated with cyber-crime increasing day by day, the EU is implementing DORA, to help create operational resilience within financial institutions and protect critical financial services. This includes implementing many cyber protocols within their business, ensuring regular security audits and embrace incident reporting.
Whilst much of this work needs to be completed by technical teams, compliance leadership have a critical role to play here. This session will give an outline to DORA itself, whilst also offering an experience-based examination of the critical role compliance have in ensuring it is implemented correctly, how to drive buy-in and support from senior management, and how to ensure company-wide adoption of its requirements

INTERACTIVE PANEL DISCUSSION WITH AUDIENCE Q&A: WHAT EFFECT ARE REGULATORY CHANGES IN THE FIELD OF CRYPTO HAVING ON THE PERCEPTION OF RISK AND SAFETY?
The crypto world has seen numerous scandals in recent years, and as a result, governments and regulators have sought to ensure participants are protected by the introduction of high-profile regulatory changes. The intention is to prevent the abuse of the crypto industry by illicit actors and drive a level playing field across Europe.
Whilst the concept of a regulated and fair crypto market has largely been welcome, the sector now faces challenges in adoption of these regulations, and overcoming costs associated with these changes. This panel discussion will focus on:
- Onboarding crypto firms - who is considered a "CASP" and what difference does this make to your exposures here?
- What are the risk management considerations you need to take into account when working with CASPs?
- Will MICA result in fewer crypto players in the EU, due to high compliance costs?
- What are the data sharing requirements associated with the Travel Rule, and who would these apply to?
- How will DORA be applied to crypto firms, and how will this differ from others in the financial space?

- Where can IT help with an AFC investigation, and how can you overcome a lack of appropriate technology?

EXPERT PRESENTATION: OUTLINING THE LATEST TRENDS AND DEVELOPMENTS IN THE FIELD OF TRADE-BASED MONEY LAUNDERING
Tahsin Ertan -
Chief Compliance Officer,
GarantiBank International NV
Trade-based money laundering (TBML) is one of the most complex, adaptive, and difficult to stop forms of money laundering used by criminal groups today. Given the continued growth of global trade,TBML offers ever greater opportunities for criminals to integrate illicit finance into the formal economy – albeit this field often received less focus that other areas of money laundering.
Join this expert presentation where we will outline the key developments in this field, give an idea of regulatory change which you need to be aware of to meet you responsibilities here and finally consider the role technology and data can play in your fight against trade based money laundering

EXPERT THINK TANK: OVERCOMING DATA SHARING CHALLENGES TO DRIVE PRIVATE PUBLIC PARTNERSHIP SUCCESS
Data is at the heart of the fight against financial crime. Its value cannot be overstated, and in a world of data driven technology, having access to the right data can make a critical difference. This is especially important when it comes to ensuring private public partnerships (PPPs) can deliver against their objectives.
However, a key challenge here is in finding the right approach to sharing data between companies and across borders. Data protection laws, and their focus on individual protection, are hard to reconcile with the collective good which can come from sharing data.
This discussion-based think tank will consider how to overcome these issues, explore how compliance and data groups can work together, and ultimately, help create a data-focused approach which works.
3:00 pm - 3:40 pm
CLOSING KEYNOTE INTERACTIVE PANEL DISCUSSION WITH AUDIENCE Q&A: CREATING A LONG-TERM DATA GOVERNANCE APPROACH FOR YOUR AFC APPROACH
Heamanth Raina -
Global Head of Data Management - Financial Crime Prevention,
SEB
Data’s importance in the fight against financial crime isn’t news, and it’s potential in the fight against financial crime is widely known. However, given data’s critical role in a technology-driven anti-financial crime strategy, ensuring the data you hold is both correct and safely managed is critical. As data insight drives decisions in this field, trusting the data you use ensures you can trust in the decisions you take as a result.
This session will consider how to create the appropriate data governance models, what type of oversight and data management frameworks you should follow, and how compliance / AFC teams can collaborate with other groups internally to create a company-wide approach to the challenge of data management.
3:35 pm - 4:00 pm
