Action-Centric Financial Crime Detection Does Not Work!
Our experts speak around the globe about the financial mechanisms of hybrid threat networks. In the video, Josh Fruth and Debra Geister, in Munich, explain why financial crime detection is ineffective. Current AML systems generate above 90% false positive rates. Here is why most transaction monitoring systems don’t work.
Our Work Speaks for Itself
"I remember the presentation at the #FICO Conference. It was so refreshing to hear such accomplished speakers , both Joshua and Debra, on how to effectively deal with the money laundering and terrorist financing threat. If you ever see them guest speaking, I recommend you sign up!"
"I had the privilege of working with Debra and her firm on a year long project while at eBay. They are an all-in team with passion, patience, knowledge and experience that rivals no other...I highly recommend Debra and her firm and value the work they have done for my company and my team."
The entire series was best educational experience in my AML career. Super practical, full of content. It completely changed my understanding of how terrorism financing works.
It got me inspired to read more about Iran, Venezuela and associated/sponsored organizations. I played some recorded sessions again and discovered other items that I did not pick up during live presentations.
ADAM A.HEAD OF COMPLIANCE
I want to say thank you for providing me with a scholarship to complete the Threat Finance Academy. I though it was a great course and had a ton of information to learn from. The quizzes at the end were surprisingly difficult and I had to re-watch a lot of the material – but I learned a lot more that way!
Thank you again for the training – I’ll be passing along my notes to my state Counterdrug program with the intention of recommending your courses for our training in the future.
