# The Pandora Papers and the cost of getting compliance wrong

---

The recently leaked Pandora Papers exposed the scale of financial crime and money laundering taking place across the globe.

Beyond the scandalous headlines, financial firms are now realising non-compliance with financial crime regulations can have material, detrimental impact on their operations if they do not take simple, fundamental steps to improve their compliance processes.

In this webinar **Dr Henry Balani** (Global Head of Industry & Regulatory Affairs, Encompass), is joined by **Howard Wimpory** (KYC Transformation Director, Encompass) and **Pawneet Abramowski** (Founder & Principal, PARC Solutions LLC) for a thought-provoking discussion that will cover:

- Highlights from the Pandora Papers leak
- The cost of getting it wrong, drawing on insights from the whitepaper recently published by Encompass and financial crime agency, Themis
- Practical steps financial institutions and other regulated companies can take
- The potential benefits on offer for getting it right drawing on Dr Balani’s research on the impact the EU's Fourth Anti-Money Laundering Directive (4AMLD) has had on bank valuations

Fill out the form to watch the on demand webinar.
