Reflecting on a recent summit in Vienna, FNA's Adam Csabay emphasizes the industry's critical shift from siloed fraud prevention to a collaborative, systemic approach against organized financial crime. The dispatch highlights the practical deployment of AI and the urgent need to secure fast payment infrastructures through cross-sector intelligence sharing.

At the Inclusive Fintech Forum in Rwanda, FNA's Kimmo Soramäki highlighted the critical challenge of securing booming real-time payment networks against escalating financial crime without sacrificing speed or financial inclusion. The panel emphasized that overcoming the limitations of siloed compliance requires a shift toward coordinated, network-wide intelligence and collaborative national anti-scam infrastructures.

As financial crime rapidly shifts from unauthorized breaches to Authorized Push Payment (APP) scams, traditional siloed transaction monitoring systems are failing to detect malicious networks. To counter the speed of real-time payments, the industry must transition to a collaborative, network-first approach leveraging Graph AI to trace mule clusters and create systemic immunity across the entire financial ecosystem.
