Panel: Modernizing AML/KYC: Privacy-Enhancing Technologies as the Future of Compliance and Risk Detection
As AML/CFT expectations increase, institutions must enhance risk detection while addressing heightened expectations around data privacy and surveillance risk. Privacy-enhancing technologies - such as zero-knowledge proofs, homomorphic encryption, and advanced analytics - enable banks, fintechs, and digital asset platforms to meet compliance obligations without expanding surveillance risk.
