FINTRAIL
Solutions LLC, a world-class financial crime consultancy company
serving the North American FinTech and RegTech markets, today announced
the launch of the FinTech
FinCrime Exchange (FFE) West Coast. This follows the successful
launch of the FFE East Coast in November 2018. The FFE is an open forum
that brings together a global community of FinTechs to collaborate on
best practices in financial crime risk management.
By sharing information on criminal typologies and controls, members help
to strengthen the sector’s ability to detect and counter the global
threat of financial crimes, which includes money laundering, bribery and
corruption, tax evasion, and terrorist financing. The continued
expansion of the FFE in the United States – and across the globe – is a
major step forward in the fight against financial crime.
“After the success of the FFE in Europe and New York, we are pleased to
welcome West Coast-based members to our community,” said Julie Myers
Wood, FINTRAIL Solutions Co-Founder and Guidepost Solutions CEO. “The
global nature of the threats that we all face only serves to highlight
the need for a network such as the FFE, where members can share their
unique crime prevention experiences and perspectives.”
The first FFE
West Coast meeting will occur on May 8th, in San Francisco. There,
industry experts from a variety of organizations will share their
insights into best practices on fighting financial crime. Speakers
include executives from:
- Curve
- Federal Bureau of Investigation
- FINTRAIL Solutions
- Guidepost Solutions
- Loot
- MobileCoin
- Silvergate Bank
- Square
Attendance is free and the event will consist of a panel discussion and
a session where FFE members will share case studies and experiences,
followed by an audience Q&A.
“After creating the first FFE group in the UK in January 2017, we now
have a global network of over 90 FinTechs that participate on a regular
basis,” said Robert Evans, FINTRAIL Solutions Co-Founder and FINTRAIL
LTD. Co-Founder. “The demand for a forum like the FFE has never been
greater. And, in a hotbed location for FinTech and RegTech innovation
like San Francisco, we are delighted to launch a new chapter that will
provide a place for professionals to meet and share important insights
relevant to both members and stakeholders in law enforcement, the
government, and the financial services sector.”
