Fraud, money laundering, scams and crypto-enabled crime are increasingly interconnected, exposing weaknesses not just within individual firms but across the financial system as a whole.
In a recent Fraud Prevention Summit article, Recordsure’s CEO, Joe Norburn, highlighted how fragmented oversight is creating new financial crime risks for firms.
Fragmented oversight risk
With financial crime becoming more interconnected – fragmented systems, teams, technologies and data are creating gaps that can be exploited.
Many organisations continue to manage financial crime across separate functions, each with different data sets, priorities and measures of success. This disconnect can lead to limited visibility of risk, particularly where systems and processes fail to connect.
This highlights the growing need for more connected oversight, where systems, data and monitoring provide a clearer, more consistent view of financial crime risk.
Financial crime is no longer just a function to manage, but a system-wide discipline that shapes resilience, trust and long-term competitiveness.
