AML Accelerate

23/05/2026

The International Compliance Association Future of FinCrime & Compliance Summit 2026 brought together a strong mix of people working across financial crime and compliance.

Mark attended on behalf of Arctic Intelligence and had some really good conversations with practitioners across the industry.

It was a great chance to hear directly from people on the ground about what is working, what is not, and where the biggest challenges still sit.

If you met Mark at the event and would like to continue the conversation, please reach out. If not, feel free to contact us now.

What a great two days at The Assembly Australasia 2026 in Sydney.

Thank you to everyone who visited Table 1 and spent time with the Arctic Intelligence team. We really enjoyed the conversations around AML/CTF reform, financial crime risk and how organisations are responding to increasing regulatory expectations.

There was strong discussion around the growing complexity of financial crime and the importance of connected, data-driven approaches to compliance.

If we spoke during the event, we’ll be in touch soon. If we missed you, feel free to reach out to the team.

We’re heading to London next week for the Future of Financial Crime & Compliance event, 19–21 May.

It’s one of those gatherings where the real value is in the hallway conversations just as much as the sessions. Fraud, scams, AML/CTF and broader financial crime risk are all evolving quickly and the industry is trying to keep pace.

You’ll find the Arctic Intelligence team in the FinCrime Zone if you’re there.
