30th Annual West Coast AML Forum

May 3– 5, 2023*

(*optional, complimentary Blockchain Investigations training from 4pm on May 2, 2023)

Marines’ Memorial Club - San Francisco, CA

The West Coast Anti-Money Laundering Forum (WCAML) is an annual conference that fosters a confidential and cooperative exchange of knowledge and ideas in the fight against money laundering, terrorist financing, and other financial crimes. Attendees include financial crimes compliance professionals, federal and state regulators, and the law enforcement and intelligence communities.

The conference is planned and executed by a group of volunteers from a cross-section of the public and private sectors. The agenda is diverse and representative of the Bay Area’s unique combination of traditional financial services, fintech, and cryptocurrency firms, and their partnerships with regulators and law enforcement. The event itself is closed to the media and does not retain sponsors, allowing a level of candor not seen at other events.

• Hands-on blockchain investigations training (optional, afternoon of May 2)
• Law enforcement case studies
• Artificial intelligence and its application to AML
• Content moderation

• Regulatory trends and hot topics
• International law enforcement trends
• Crypto challenges and opportunities
