In a world of instantaneous transactions, globalized threats, and evolving regulatory pressure, static, point-in-time KYC is increasingly inadequate. Financial crime doesn’t wait for a refresh cycle—and neither can compliance.
That’s why perpetual KYC (pKYC) has moved from concept to imperative. Enabled by AI and real-time data, it equips institutions to monitor risk continuously, respond faster, and shift from reactive to proactive compliance.
To explore this shift, join us for an exclusive Convergence event, hosted in partnership with Protiviti. This closed-door session will bring together voices from regulatory agencies, leading financial institutions, and cutting-edge technology firms to examine the operational realities and future promise of pKYC. Together, we’ll chart the course from vision to execution—and redefine what it means to “know your customer” in a world that never stops evolving.

Agenda
(All times BST)
3:00 – 3:30 pm Welcome and Opening Remarks
3:30 – 4:15 pm Keynote: Perpetual and Proactive. The New Era of KYC
As KYC evolves from periodic reviews to continuous risk assessment, perpetual KYC (pKYC) is emerging as the new standard. This session explores the key trends driving the shift (including AI, real-time data, and regulatory expectations) and what they mean for compliance, technology, and operations.
4:15 – 5:00 pm Panel: Making Perpetual KYC a Reality
Perpetual KYC promises to reduce risk blind spots by replacing static reviews with continuous monitoring and dynamic risk assessment, but getting there requires more than just new technology. In this panel, compliance leaders, regulators, technologists, and legal experts will discuss what it takes to operationalize pKYC in practice: from data integration and AI explainability to regulatory alignment and cross-functional collaboration.
5:00 – 5:15 pm Break
5:15 – 5:20 pm Table Group Instructions
5:20 – 6:20 pm Table Workshop
In this interactive working session, participants will collaborate to discuss and solve a curated set of high-priority pKYC:
- What does “perpetual KYC” mean for your organization, and how far along are you in making it a reality?
- What barriers (technical, regulatory, or cultural) are preventing the shift from periodic reviews to continuous monitoring?
- What role should AI and automation play in your KYC process, and how do you ensure transparency and accountability?
- What is one concrete step your organization could take in the next 6 months to move closer to pKYC?
