E164: How do we turn technology against financial crime?

June 11, 2026 · 41 min

Show notes

Coming to you from Insight Denmark's recent 'Compliance & Legal in the financial sector' conference in Copenhagen!


In the 1984 film Terminator, the T-800 is a threat — a machine sent from the future to destroy us.


By the 1991 sequel, the exact same model has been reprogrammed and is now humanity's last line of defence.


Is this how we should be looking at technology and financial crime? A threat we can reprogramme to work with us — rather than against us?


Our expert host, Marit Rødevand, is joined by Louise Buchter, AML Expert, and Cecilie Bøttger, Head of Compliance at Kompasbank, to ask: how do we turn technology against financial crime?


The panel discuss how technology is the biggest threat in compliance, how it can also save us, and what the industry needs to do to embrace the change.


Producer: Matthew Dunne-Miles

Editor: Dominic Delargy
