Information systems and anti-money laundering: the case of a large financial institution

Dionysios Demetis
ISIG, LSE

1200 - 1330
Thursday 11 March 2010

Room NAB 2.16

This talk deconstructs the influence of information systems on the Anti-Money Laundering practices of a major financial institution in the EU area. It is based on a new book by the speaker, due to be published by Edward Elgar in October 2010, titled 'Technology and Anti-Money Laundering: A systems theory and risk based approach'. In the talk, a variety of information systems are analysed and their effects are considered on the basis of AML influences, focused not only on profiling and data-mining software, but also on information systems that are peripheral to AML working practices. 

Dr Dionysios Demetis is an Associate member of the Information Systems and Innovation Group and author of two upcoming books, one on Anti-Money Laundering, and another on the philosophy of science titled 'Science's First Mistake', co-authored with Ian Angell.
