When most walk into a bank, they deal with the public-facing staff. Bank tellers. Maybe a loan officer. But what many don’t realize is that there is a whole group of personnel behind the scenes, yet they are on the front line against financial crime. They are the anti-money laundering compliance staff. You don’t interact with them directly, but they’re the ones looking for signs of suspicious financial activity. Sara Beth Felix is an anti-money laundering expert and consultant who helps banks get their compliance act together. Designated host Yaya Jata Fanusie recently spoke to Sarah Beth Felix about how good AML experts are wired differently and need to be active and perceptive in identifying suspicious transactions within their institutions.

What does it take to run a nation’s anti-financial crime agency and stay one step ahead of those adapting to the changing world of finance faster than the government agencies tasked with stopping them?  By building better investigative and analytic methods through new technologies. Dr. Shlomit Wagman was the Director-General of the Israel Money Laundering and Terror Financing Prohibition Authority. She served when terrorist groups in the region first began experimenting with cryptocurrencies. She saw their new methods up close and helped develop technologies and investigative methodologies to go after them. Designated host, Yaya Jata Fanusie recently spoke with Dr. Wagman where she described the challenges and successes while leading such a massive operation and reminds us all that technology is a tool that can be used, for good and bad, depending on who yields it and how.

Scott Baucum’s official title at Bayer U.S. is Vice President of Special Compliance and Asset Protection. But his day-to-day focus is stopping those bad actors attempting to infiltrate American technology companies to steal their proprietary data. Sometimes those scheming to steal exist within the ranks of the companies targeted. And as Scott Baucum knows firsthand, these “insider threats” often pose the most risk. Designated’s host, Yaya Jata Fanusie, spoke with Scott about what it's like being a target for economic espionage and to find out how a kid who grew up on a farm in Texas applies his vast agricultural knowledge toward dismantling Chinese spies plotting to steal biotech secrets from American companies.
