We had guests from compliance teams in financial institutions and from Anti Financial Crime (AFC) related solution companies. The conversation delved into future target operating models and digital transformation strategies in AFC compliance.   We shared valuable insights on common pain points, key components of target operating models, and the unique crime offences faced across Asia and Europe. All of us are sharing a common goal of building a more resilient AFC community! #BearingPoint #FinancialCrime #TargetOperatingModel #AFCCommunity       Shilpa Boranaa Vasant Chaudhry Woody Mao Andrew Lim

Following the 2008 global financial crisis and recent economic events, there has been a heightened focus on global resolution reforms to ensure that respective resolution planning frameworks are sufficiently robust to maintain financial stability. As the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) continues to develop its resolution regime, authorised institutions (AIs) in Hong Kong are expected to have adequate resolution planning in place to address potential impediments to resolvability. At PwC Hong Kong’s recent roundtable on resolution planning in Hong Kong, our Advisory Partners, Philip Chan and Jeff Lee, CFA, FRM, along with bank representatives, discussed the evolving landscape, shedding light on current challenges and future expectations. As AIs navigate the complexities of Hong Kong’s resolution regime, it is evident that sound operational and financial capabilities, along with comprehensive data management information systems, will be instrumental in preparing AIs to better position themselves for future implementation expectations and enhance their resolvability.
