AML

AML (Anti-Money Laundering) refers to the regulatory frameworks and compliance programs designed to detect and prevent the use of financial systems for money laundering and terrorism financing. For AI governance, AML is critical because machine learning models increasingly power transaction monitoring, customer risk assessment, and suspicious activity detection across financial institutions. Organizations must ensure their AI systems maintain transparency, avoid discrimination, and remain auditable for regulatory examination, as failure to do so can result in substantial fines and reputational damage.
