How to Harness AI to Build a Smarter, More Predictive Sanctions Compliance Program

Artificial intelligence is rapidly changing what is possible in sanctions compliance. But for sanctions, legal, and financial crime professionals, the critical question is no longer simply what AI can do; but rather how to use it effectively, responsibly, and right now.

This intensive one-day program moves beyond the AI hype to examine how AI can be applied across the sanctions compliance lifecycle. Leading experts will explore how AI can help organizations identify risk earlier, improve screening and alert triage, uncover complex ownership and transaction patterns, strengthen investigations, reduce false positives, and turn growing volumes of data into actionable intelligence.

Just as importantly, the program will address the risks: Where should human judgment remain essential? How do you validate AI-generated conclusions? And how can organizations embrace AI while maintaining defensible, auditable compliance decisions?

Go Beyond Screening. Start Thinking Predictively.

Through practical discussions and real-world use cases, attendees will examine:

• Where AI can deliver the greatest impact across screening, investigations, due diligence, transaction monitoring, and risk assessment
• Moving from reactive to predictive compliance to identify emerging sanctions exposure earlier
• Reducing false positives and improving alert prioritization without sacrificing accuracy or defensibility
• Uncovering hidden connections across ownership structures, networks, counterparties, vessels, intermediaries, and transactions
• Using generative AI and AI agents to accelerate research, investigations, policy analysis, and compliance workflows
• Integrating AI into existing sanctions programs and determining which processes should, and should not, be automated
• Managing governance, explainability, validation, and human oversight
• Building the business case for AI and measuring efficiency, effectiveness, and risk reduction

Why Attend?

Sanctions teams are being asked to process more information, respond faster, and identify increasingly complex risks. Technology alone will not create a smarter sanctions compliance program.

Leave with a practical roadmap for where AI belongs in your sanctions program, where it does not, and how to use it to make faster, better-informed, and defensible compliance decisions.
