Legacy compliance software in the financial industry is outdated, expensive, and inefficient. Firms often struggle with manual processes, high rates of false positives, and a lack of visibility into their data — sometimes even being charged to retrieve it. Why are so many companies still stuck with tools that fail to meet the demands of today’s fast-paced, data-driven world?
Larry Shumbres, a fintech entrepreneur and expert in compliance and AI, offers a fresh take on modernizing the regulatory space. Drawing on decades of experience, he outlines how to replace tedious manual reviews with AI-powered agents that automate flagging, auditing, and proactive messaging. By focusing on intuitive design, customer feedback, and realistic AI implementation, Larry shares how firms can reduce false positives by up to 98% while cutting manual tasks by 85%. He also emphasizes the importance of staying personally involved with customers and regularly listening to their pain points to keep innovation alive.
