Synthetic data comes with all sorts of hype: the next great accelerator to combat financial crime, the silver bullet of compliance – even an emerging hero!

But while this use of AI is promising, there is still plenty to be worked out and you better believe that the bad guys are utilising it too!

Our expert host, Fredrik Riiser, is joined by Dr. Janet Bastiman, Chief Data Scientist at Napier AI, to strip through the hype and look at what synthetic data can really do for compliance professionals.

The pair discuss: the capabilities of synthetic data today, the biggest challenges in its way, and what the future of fighting financial crime could be if we get this right.

Producer: Matthew Dunne-Miles
