The Asia-Pacific (APAC) region, home to approximately 60% of the world’s population, is a burgeoning area full of innovation in financial technologies, nations with bustling economies, and growing populations. Yet accompanying these trends is inevitable financial crime risk, including trends and issues unique to APAC, from threats of sanctions violations tied to North Korea to risks in emerging real-time payments ecosystems, and much more.

A sage of regtech, fintech, data and AI for IBM, Steven hails from Singapore, and brings with him 25+ years of experience in Asian-Pacific with numerous tech firms, multinational corporations, and the public sector.
