  • Corruption normalised

    It is concerning that ACAMS chose to feature Marshall Billingslea in this podcast, which normalises the troubling shifts we are witnessing in the US government today, including the suspension of FCPA enforcement.

    The Trump administration’s approach to tariffs, corruption, and global financial policy has been and remains largely transactional rather than principled. Presenting its policies as part of a coherent strategy that upholds international order is misleading. ACAMS has a responsibility... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Jonathan Burke on Evolving Threats, Technology, and Regulation
Q: How is 311 used in the context of sanctions and terrorist financing risks?
The designations under 311 are tools to influence behavior when diplomacy alone fails to curb risks; they complement other authorities and are meant to address primary money laundering concerns through strategic choices.
Jonathan Burke on Evolving Threats, Technology, and Regulation
Q: What lessons from industry are you bringing back to government to define effectiveness and risk management?
Burke emphasizes applying practical industry lessons to build scalable, risk-based approaches, focusing on tool availability, support for the private sector, and designing regulation that targets real threats rather than merely ticking boxes.
Carole House on AI, Cyber and Sanctions
Q: How can financial institutions and technology platforms build resilience against these threats?
Investing in stronger digital identity infrastructure and advanced verification systems is crucial, as well as engaging with industry and government to develop standards and tools for detection.
Carole House on AI, Cyber and Sanctions
Q: What are the most significant risks posed by deepfakes and AI technology in fraud?
The sophistication of deepfakes is leading to a massive compromise of KYC processes, creating fraudulent credentials that undermine trust in identity verification systems.
Kimberly Donovan on Geopolitics and the Emerging Axis of Evasion
Q: What steps are being taken regarding sanctions with Russia?
It’s uncertain, as the dynamics involve G7 sanctions and must consider what the EU is willing to lift and how they impact the negotiations.
