In this session we will explore:

• The challenges of complex calculations such as FRTB CVA capital 
• XVA sensitivities
• MVA and both cleared and non-cleared initial margin
• The benefits of technical innovation and how this can be applied.
• In particular, we will look at how the AAD methodology for calculating CVA sensitivities can be accelerated to near real-time.

Webinar: IBM Anti-Money Laundering benchmarking: How does your approach measure up?

• 27 Nov 2018

• UK

Amid public scrutiny and the increasing responsibility demanded by regulators, the world’s financial firms are under intense pressure to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of their anti-money laundering (AML) and customer due diligence (CDD) efforts.  

But the investigation process remains heavily manual, with firms throwing increasing budget and resources behind efforts to research and resolve alerts, of which the vast majority are ‘false positives’ that pose little to no risk to the institution. 

In conjunction with Risk.net, IBM conducted a survey of AML and financial crime professionals in global financial institutions to expose the scale of the challenge, from resource allocation to length of investigation to number of systems accessed during investigations. 

Join us on 27 November as we reveal the results and learn what leading institutions are doing to optimise their AML detection and investigation programmes.

In this webinar we will discuss:

• The main challenges faced during the investigation process and how to reduce the effort and time spent on ‘false positive’ alerts
• Best practice processes and methodology for AML sanctions screening, transaction monitoring, customer due diligence (CDD), enhanced due diligence and know-your-customer compliance
• Where artificial intelligence can be most effective in AML and CDD compliance management
