For C-suite executives, the stakes have never been higher. The landmark case of Birgitte Bonnesen, former CEO of Swedbank, serves as a stark reminder of this new reality. Bonnesen was convicted not just for operational failings but for personally misleading shareholders regarding Swedbank's involvement in money laundering activities tied to the notorious Danske Bank scandal.We spoke to several banks and fintechs to understand their key challenges in navigating the fast-evolving financial crime landscape.
