Description:
AI is becoming a central topic in sanctions and trade compliance conversations, but most practitioners are still trying to work out where it is genuinely safe and useful to apply it. This webinar uses real-world examples from maritime trade finance to have an honest, practical discussion: what AI can and cannot do in a regulated compliance workflow, how to handle confidence thresholds and human oversight, and what good AI governance looks like in practice.
What the webinar aims to cover:
-
A walkthrough of the application of AI to Bill of Lading document processing in sanctions and trade compliance workflows.
-
A discussion of where the technology adds genuine value and where its limitations remain.
-
Considerations for how teams should think about auditability and error handling when using AI-supported processes.
-
Practitioner perspectives on what compliance teams are asking and worrying about as AI enters their workflows.
-
A practical look at what responsible AI adoption looks like in practice.
