Detecting Financial Crime (DFC)

The world is changing rapidly – and our role as gatekeeper changes with it. Derived from our purpose ‘Banking for better, for generations to come’, we strive for a sustainable, stable and save financial system. Therefore, detection of ‘financial crime’ is a high priority for the bank.

By combining knowledge and expertise, we are better equipped to protect the bank’s systems against financial crime and handle new developments as well. In that context, ever-evolving technology represents both an opportunity and a threat. Not only does it help us to improve our investigative capabilities, it also enables organised crime to operate on a more advanced level. ‘Detecting financial crime’ is therefore an ‘ongoing process’ that demands the utmost in terms of our expertise and vigilance, day in day out.
