Keynote Address: De Quincey Bailey, Senior Investigation Officer and an Illicit Finance Lead, His Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (HMRC)

Debate: Underpinning Client Risk Rating (CRR) to Ensure Robust Financial Crime Prevention
  • Where are CRR models currently falling short and how is this weakening their value as a frontline financial crime defence?
  • What changes are being made to strengthen data validation controls and governance frameworks to ensure CRR models are powered by accurate, timely and relevant data?
  • How are firms reassessing and recalibrating low-risk ratings to avoid blind spots in their CRR models?
  • What role are automation and artificial intelligence (AI) playing in enhancing effective risk classification and explainability for high-risk indicators?
  • How are institutions connecting CRR outcomes to broader financial crime risk frameworks to manage risk?
