When Cyber, Fraud & AML Converge: Rethinking Financial Crime Compliance in Malaysia
Malaysia's financial crime landscape is becoming more complex as cyber-enabled fraud, digital finance, evolving AML expectations, and new regulatory obligations increasingly overlap. This closed-door roundtable brings together senior practitioners to discuss how these converging pressures are changing AML monitoring in practice.
Our speakers
The session will explore where traditional monitoring models are being stretched: alert quality, fraud and AML handoffs, data gaps, investigation workflows, escalation, reporting, documentation, governance, and readiness for rising regulatory expectations.
Joining the discussions are:
- Norhayati Yusof, Head of Financial Intelligence, Permodalan Nasional Berhad (PNB)
- Nadia Farhan Noordin, Head of Compliance, GXBank
- Xiao Chen, Associate Director, Industry Practice Lead, Moody's
- Moderated by Baran Ozkan, CEO, Flagright
This discussion includes the practical implications of recent AMLA changes, but it is not designed as a legal briefing. The focus is operational: how Malaysian financial institutions can strengthen monitoring, investigations, and control readiness as financial crime risks become more connected and harder to separate.
Seats are limited to keep the discussion senior and relevant.
