Navigating Risk, Regulation, and Innovation in a Transforming Financial Landscape

NEW YORK - April 9, 2025 - PRLog -- As the pace of digital innovation accelerates, so do the complexities of compliance and enforcement in the fintech and payments space. American Conference Institute (ACI) is proud to announce the return of its 9th Annual Fintech & Emerging Payment Systems Conference, taking place May 12-14 in New York City.

Bringing together leading regulators, enforcement agencies, legal experts, compliance officers, and innovators from across the financial ecosystem, this year's conference will address mission-critical developments at the intersection of technology, law, and financial services.

Regulation May Shift, But Risk Never Goes Away

Despite ongoing discussions around deregulation, enforcement actions related to fraud, sanctions, AML, and data privacy remain active and complex. Attendees will gain insights into how agencies such as FinCEN, OCC, CFPB, SEC, and FTC are approaching oversight in a rapidly evolving environment—while also preparing for aggressive state-level enforcement and global compliance requirements across the EU, UK, and APAC regions.

Smart Compliance as a Strategic Advantage

With regulatory priorities shifting and oversight loosening under the current administration, lean yet effective compliance programs are more vital than ever. The event will showcase practical tools and peer-tested strategies to optimize compliance functions, enhance fraud prevention, and boost organizational resilience—transforming compliance from a cost center into a competitive edge.

A Global View on Financial Crime, Crypto, and AI Risks

From the SEC's continued scrutiny of digital assets to NYDFS's recent guidance on AI governance and model risk management, and OFAC's sanctions enforcement actions involving crypto mixers—regulators worldwide are focusing on how technology is reshaping financial crime. The conference will feature exclusive updates on how to manage AI-driven risks, the evolving stablecoin and CBDC landscape, and what's next for cross-border payments.

Don't Miss Your Opportunity to Stay Ahead of What's Next.
