Almost three quarters of senior global financial services professionals expect financial crime risk to rise in 2025 - Kroll
Cybersecurity threats have been a growing trend in recent years, and the data shows that concern is on the rise and the perception of AI in financial crime compliance is shifting.
Financial and professional services firms are preparing for greater enforcement action on regulations and evolving compliance challenges in 2025 – but a significant portion lack confidence in their ability to adapt, particularly with sanctions.
2024 was a year of notable geopolitical events and 2025 has already begun with arguably more disruption than was seen through last year. Indeed, organizations are factoring this into their ongoing compliance efforts.
says, "From cybersecurity threats to geopolitical uncertainty, firms in 2025 are facing an incredibly complex risk environment. The changing nature of risk analysis means that businesses are expected to stay abreast of a variety of risk factors, but this becomes increasingly difficult the faster that illicit actors develop new tricks and tools.
What is measured can be managed, as the saying goes, and our 2025 Financial Crime Report is intended to give compliance and security teams a better measurement of the risks they face today. Firms that can best direct efforts to meet this changing landscape will be the ones that succeed, even as the outlook for financial crime grows more concerning by the year."
says, "It is a worrying, but not surprising, revelation that sophisticated financial risk and compliance leaders feel less prepared than ever to prevent and mitigate rising financial crime risks in today's complex global environment. We are facing a geopolitical landscape of increased macro uncertainty, more aggressive threat actors and diminished regulatory predictability.
While we're yet to see exactly what this year will hold, financial crime remains a major global concern and professionals in all sectors will need to be on the top of their game, partnering with experts on risk analysis, decision-making support, and mitigation plans, if they are to protect and grow their businesses."
