Schedule

1. KYC in a Digital Era – a FinReg Perspective

What does KYC legally mean? We will briefly approach KYC related obligations (in a practical manner) considering the Portuguese legal regime on AML/CFT and AMLD5. Considering that, nowadays, businesses are getting even more digital and decentralized, which options do they have for digital onboarding of clients? Where is the EU heading in a near future?

Speakers: Vera Esteves Cardoso, Consultant at Morais Leitão; Ashick Remetula, Associate at Morais Leitão

2. Financial Crime Transformation – Effectiveness Meets Efficiency

Regulators continue to focus heavily on the programs within the financial institutions they supervise, calling out a continued need for enhancements to be made. On top of this we are seeing increased policymaking on an ongoing basis, resulting in significant costs to the bottom line to meet the technical requirements and drive a better outcome for customer experience. It has never been more important to embrace technologies that streamline compliance, onboarding and KYC processes, improve reporting and monitoring capabilities and enhance threat mitigation programs.

Speaker: João Madeira, Forensic and Risk Consulting Partner at KPMG Portugal

3. Embedded Onboarding

Traditional Banks are the most regulated institutions that need to leverage Digital Onboarding solutions in order to comply with KYC and AML policies in Portugal. As it is extremely difficult to build frictionless and connected onboarding experiences while balancing with the consequent obligatory friction-prone steps of the regulation, how can Banks overcome this challenge? And how can they benefit and take to the next level a fully compliant but still valuable digital onboarding?

Speaker: Miguel Pontes, Assistant Director, MarTech & Website at Banco BPI
