AI exposure (AIOE)i70%

Many core tasks, such as maintaining registers and initial client screening, are routine and increasingly automated by specialized AML software and RPA tools. However, tasks involving judgment, escalation, and nuanced communication remain human-driven, resulting in a moderate automation risk. The role is highly exposed to AI augmentation, as GenAI and workflow tools can assist with reporting, case management, and regulatory updates.

Task analysis

  • Perform client onboarding checks and risk assessments according to AML/CFT procedures.
  • Monitor and investigate client transactions for suspicious activity, raising alerts as needed.
  • Maintain and update PEP (Politically Exposed Persons) and high-risk client registers.
  • Support compliance checks and prepare regulatory reports for internal and external stakeholders.
  • Utilize screening tools such as World-Check or Dow Jones to perform client due diligence.
  • Investigate and document findings from transaction monitoring and client screening.

  • Stay updated on AML/CFT regulatory changes and ensure internal procedures reflect current requirements.
