Jane Jee, Chair Kompli-Global Limited and Chair Project Financial Crime, Emerging Payments Association (UK)

Jane Jee, Chair Kompli-Global Limited and Chair Project Financial Crime, Emerging Payments Association (UK) talks to Marie Lundberg and Sam Sheen about her involvement in the pre-consultation in her role with the Emerging Payments Association to urge the UK Government to engage more with RegTechs as part of their planned review of the Money Laundering Regulations and the plans in the UK for its well known corporate registry - Companies House. Jane shares the story of Kompli's evolution of its financial crime RegTech and how it has leveraged the data from Companies House to better detect odd things in the registry's data. Jane, Sam and Marie look at the nine-fold increase in requests for information by enforcement from Companies House for investigation purposes; the upcoming changes that will be introduced by the registry to change the way in which they operate, their powers to verify data, requiring companies to do more in terms of how they supply the data, Companies House business plans involving massive transformation from technology usage, process and even culture. Jane talks about the extent to which Companies House has reached out to RegTechs to see what the potential tools at their disposal are along with the overall need by regulators to also harness the use of RegTech to undertake their supervisory tasks and make them more efficient.Jane concludes her chat by sharing some sage advice on how best to check the data on a register and the places KYC reviewers may not think to look for that might suggest a financial crime red flag has unfurled.
