September 10, 2026

San Francisco, CA USA


FinScan will be on site at the ACAMS Northern California chapter's Emerging Payments Fall Event in San Francisco. The chapter's payments programs draw financial crime professionals from the banks, payments companies, and fintechs building on the newest rails, and this year's sessions run across instant and intelligent payments, embedded finance and open banking, and tokenization and digital assets.


Becki LaPorte, Principal, AML Strategy and Innovation at FinScan, joins the panel "The Future of Payments: Navigating Innovation and the Emerging Fraud & Financial Crime Risks."


The session covers:

  • Innovation in instant and intelligent payments, including OC, RTP and FedNow adoption, cross-border transactions, digital wallets, and payment orchestration and routing

  • Embedded finance, open banking, and API innovation, covering embedded payments, Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS), Finance-as-a-Service (FaaS), open banking and open finance, and consumer-permissioned data

  • Digital assets, tokenization, and the future of value transfer

  • Building trust in the next generation of payments, balancing consumer protections against anti-financial crime controls


FinScan works on the screening side of compliance. We offer award-winning transaction, sanctions, watchlist, PEP, and adverse media screening with a data quality engine built-in. FinScan Payments offers sub 100ms latency at enormous scale. It's ISO 20022 native so structured party data reaches the matching engine without being converted first.
