Leveraging Analytical Models for the Prevention of Money Laundering
This model risk management session will cover an overview of anti-money laundering models, why/how they are used, and how their performance is validated. Our trusted advisors will share helpful insight on these questions:

- How, why, and when do institutions use such models?
- What is expected of compliance team members?
- Why do third-party models need validation?
- What does the model validation process look like?
