To overcome the challenges posed by the adoption of Artificial Intelligence in the fight against money laundering, a strategic and responsible approach that looks beyond technological innovation as an end in itself is essential. In this sense, banks are called upon to combine targeted investments in advanced technologies with a solid strengthening of internal skills, while building a governance system capable of managing risks and maximizing the benefits of new solutions. At the heart of this transformation remains the human element: however advanced, AI can lead to distorted or incorrect results if left to operate in isolation. The challenges it poses should not be seen as barriers, but as stimuli to rethink processes and promote their strategic and safe implementation.
