In May 2023, Hawk AI participated in the PwC Hackathon at ACAMS Hollywood.

The competition aimed to identify maximum suspicious transactions and/or new trends in the provided data and artfully present our findings. Based on our company vision of streamlining the process for frontline operators and enabling them to efficiently generate high-quality true positive Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs), our data science and product teams set on working through the supplied data sets to detect financial crime.

Building the AML compliance function of a financial services business right the first time will save time, money, and stress in the long run. Not only that, but proactive AML compliance can promote innovation and help bring new products to market more quickly.

Every day, banks and financial services generate an enormous amount of data – transactions, and customer information, to name a few dimensions.

Money laundering is abnormal behavior, which should make it easy to spot. However, money launderers change their methods to avoid prosecution, which makes it difficult to detect financial crime. Emerging AI technology provides anti-money laundering teams with the anomaly detection power they need to catch and fight financial crime.

In regular HAWKademy sessions, we learn from one another interactively and collaboratively. The latest session focussed on what Test-Driven Development (TDD) means in actual practice. 

World-class organizations are built by world-class teams, which is why HAWK AI focuses on attracting top talent from across the globe. But how do you make talent even better? Of course, by sharing with, and learning from, the other talented team members!
