The Department of Law of the Faculty of Law, Economics and Finance is pleased to invite you to this NCER FinTech Seminar.

Abstract

This seminar falls under the auspices of FinTech NCER supported by the National Research Fund of Luxembourg. It is intended to explore the current state of affairs in the field of financial forensics, in relation to the capabilities and limitations of AI-based tools. 

The legal and ethical challenges of the use of AI in financial crime detection, supervision and prevention, will be discussed both from the point of view of private investigations and of public enforcement. Academics and researchers, practitioners and public authorities’ representatives will come together to exchange perspectives and contribute to a better understanding of the prospects of AI-enabled financial forensics, as well as to the identification of risks and regulatory gaps, hoping to prompt, in turn, further discussions on the optimal ways to tackle them
