About this episode:
In this episode, host Kate Moody is joined by an expert panel in partnership with LexisNexis Risk Solutions to unpack a trend that’s quietly reshaping global finance: the slowdown in sanctions activity.
With the latest Sanctions Pulse Report showing a 40% drop in new designations - the steepest decline in three years - the team explores what’s really behind the numbers, and what it means for fintechs navigating compliance in 2025.
From delistings and enforcement trends to the growing role of automation, AI, and real-time data, they break down how fintechs can stay ahead in an increasingly complex regulatory landscape.
Whether you’re leading a compliance team or just curious about the forces shaping financial regulation, this episode is packed with insights on turning a quieter sanctions cycle into a smarter strategy. Enjoy the listen!
