Financial Crimes – A Paradigm Shift

A five-part article series exploring financial crime and the risk financial institutions face.

Financial crime has become one of the most significant risks faced by financial institutions. It is becoming increasingly sophisticated with the use of new and emerging technologies to exploit financial systems, and the role of financial institutions has become vital to preventing, detecting, and deterring the criminal activity.

The Financial Crimes - A Paradigm Shift article series explores the views of KPMG thought leaders to:

  • Understand why the fight against financial crime matters.
  • Gauge the current climate.
  • Identify shifts or changes in the future of financial crime required to move forward with purpose.
