As you will know, early next year Jersey’s financial services industry will be the subject of an EU Moneyval (Committee of Experts on the Evaluation of Anti-Money Laundering Measures and the Financing of Terrorism) review.  One of the areas that this review is likely to focus on is the industry’s approach to understanding and managing the financial crime risks and threats of conducting business in higher risk jurisdictions.

Most of the session will be a moderated Q&A with leading experts who will join the event remotely. There will be plenty of opportunity to ask our expert panel questions. So far, I can confirm two expert panellists speaking at our roundtable are:
