Prosus AI House, Gustav Mahlerplein 5, 1082 MS Amsterdam, Netherlands

About the event
Digital transformation is rewiring how organisations decide, communicate and do business, from AI and data to social media and constant connectivity. It brings real opportunity, and it asks something new of leadership: integrity can no longer sit with any single function. 

The Week of Integrity opens with a morning built around that shift. 
Professor Christian Hauser sets the scene with a keynote on integrity and anti-corruption in a digital age. A renewed guide to doing business honestly abroad is launched, backed by government, business and civil society together. And a cross-functional panel asks who really owns integrity when it runs across compliance, technology, data, HR and the board, and why breaking the silos has become essential. 

Join us to set the tone for the Week ahead.

Why attend

• Hear a leading voice on integrity and anti-corruption in a digital age.

Al 10 jaar draagt de Kennistafel Gedrag & Cultuur bij aan kennisontwikkeling en kennisdeling over gedrag en cultuur in organisaties. Dat doen de leden met praktijkgerichte inzichten, inspirerende bijeenkomsten en concrete handvatten voor iedereen die werkt binnen compliance, integriteit of breder betrokken is bij integriteitsvraagstukken.

Op donderdag 24 september organiseert Kennistafel Gedrag & Cultuur haar jubileumcongres met als thema In verbinding. Een thema dat past bij de kern van de Kennistafel: werken aan gedrag en cultuur doe je niet alleen, maar juist samen. In verbinding met jezelf, met de ander en met de organisatie als geheel. In een tijd waarin maatschappelijke en organisatorische spanningen toenemen, wordt die verbinding alleen maar belangrijker.

Tijdens dit congres staan we stil bij 10 jaar Kennistafel Gedrag & Cultuur, verkennen we actuele thema’s zoals de compliance cultuurscan, polarisatie en meldklimaat, en bieden we volop ruimte voor uitwisseling, verdieping en ontmoeting. Een inspirerende middag voor professionals die impact willen maken op gedrag, cultuur en integriteit in hun organisatie.

The Expert Group on Financial Economic Crime invites you to a webinar on a rapidly emerging threat to digital identity integrity: Account & Document Farms. The webinar, held in English, will take place on 19 May 2026 from 17:00 to 18:00 (CET).

Criminals have found a new way to exploit the financial system: Account & Document Farms. These organised networks open large numbers of bank accounts through online onboarding, using purchased, stolen or synthetic identities combined with professionally forged documentation. The fully set‑up accounts — including login credentials and supporting documents — are then sold on social platforms for a few hundred euros. The result is “banking‑as‑a‑service” for criminals, without any reliance on traditional money mules.

This webinar highlights a rapidly growing phenomenon that has major implications for KYC processes, onboarding, transaction monitoring and fraud detection within financial institutions.

What to expect

We approach this topic from practical experience and international expertise, with speakers specialising in behavioural biometrics, document fraud and the abuse of online onboarding channels. They will provide deep insights into:

• how Account & Document Farms operate
• which technologies they use (AI, deepfakes, device spoofing)
• how large‑scale and professional these networks have become
• which detection strategies are being applied internationally

The introduction and Dutch context will be provided by Albert Stoetzer, who will address:

• relevance for Dutch financial institutions
• recent case studies and supervisory developments
• implications for onboarding and monitoring processes

Webinar content

• operating model and business model of Account & Document Farms
• vulnerabilities in current KYC and onboarding processes
• the role of AI, deepfakes and synthetic identities
• indicators and red flags for detection
• potential mitigation strategies and process adjustments

Why you shouldn’t miss this webinar

Account & Document Farms represent a new generation of identity fraud that puts traditional gatekeeper controls under significant pressure. This webinar will equip you with the insights needed to recognise emerging risks, strengthen your processes and prepare your organisation for what lies ahead.

The Expert Group on Financial Economic Crime invites you to a webinar: Artificial Intelligence in Financial Crime Compliance.  The webinar, held in English, will take place on 17 September 2026 from 17:00 to 18:00 (CET).

Artificial Intelligence is rapidly transforming financial crime compliance. AI is increasingly being applied across KYC/KYB, enhanced due diligence, fraud prevention, transaction monitoring, sanctions screening and financial crime risk assessment.

But where is AI being used today? Which applications show the most promise, what technologies are being applied, and what is preventing broader adoption?

Drawing on benchmark data from more than 600 senior risk and compliance professionals, this webinar provides a practical, data-driven view of AI adoption. The session will explore the application of predictive machine learning, Large Language Models, multimodal AI and AI agents across financial crime processes, supported by real-world examples.

The webinar will be presented by Michael Lawrence and Nathan Parker, from Parker & Lawrence Research, a market research firm specialising in AI, risk and compliance and focused on supporting the responsible adoption of emerging technologies.

Why you should attend

Participants will gain valuable insight into:

• where AI is currently being applied within financial crime compliance;
• which financial crime processes offer the greatest opportunities for AI;
• how different AI capabilities can support KYC/KYB, fraud prevention, transaction monitoring, sanctions screening and other FEC processes;
• how organisations differ in their level of AI and technology maturity;
• real-world examples of AI applications within financial crime compliance;
• the main operational and organisational barriers to wider AI adoption;
• priorities for improving AI readiness.

Topics will reflect current market developments, benchmark research and the practical experience of the speakers.
