Why this course exists

You’ve already tried using AI for financial crime work. The results are inconsistent.

You’ve pasted a transaction history into ChatGPT and asked for an investigation summary. You’ve drafted a KYC note with Copilot. You’ve asked for help wording a SAR narrative or a sanctions hit disposition. The outputs come back — sometimes useful, often generic, occasionally embarrassing if a reviewer or regulator ever saw the original prompt. There’s no framework, no consistency, and no way to defend the work if a Second Line picks it up.

You’re not alone. 75% of knowledge workers now use AI on the job (Microsoft Work Trend Index, 2024), but only 13% have received any formal AI training (Randstad Workmonitor, 2025). In financial crime, that gap is the whole problem — people experimenting privately, without firm guidance, in roles where every decision needs to be defensible.

Untrained AI use in regulated environments is not just a productivity issue. It’s a defensibility issue, a confidentiality issue, and a regulatory exposure issue. This course closes that gap — with prompt workflows built for AML work, a governance framework designed for regulated environments, and the human-in-the-loop discipline that makes AI safe to use in front of a regulator.

Data classification. Confidentiality controls. Governance and accountability. Building defensible AI use that holds up to internal audit and regulators.

What you’ll be able to do ↓

The operational core. Six reusable prompt workflow chains across investigations, SAR/STR, sanctions, adverse media, MI, and QA review.

What you’ll be able to do ↓

04

Building Your AI Productivity System for Financial Crime Work

30–40 min

From experimentation to a repeatable system. Reusable prompts, role-specific templates, review routines, working within real firm constraints like Microsoft Copilot or approved internal tools.

What you’ll be able to do ↓

Marco Beranzoni, instructor of the FinCrime AI Accelerator
Your instructor

Built by a practitioner. Not a generic AI instructor.

Marco Beranzoni has spent 20+ years in financial crime — hands-on operational work across AML, sanctions, KYC, and risk assurance, in banks, fintechs, and consultancies. He’s sat in the analyst seat, run the QA function, briefed regulators, and stood up programmes from scratch.

He founded FinCrime Agent to give practitioners the training their firms aren’t providing — structured, opinionated, and built around the work that actually lands on a Monday morning.

The FinCrime AI Accelerator is what Marco wishes had existed when he was operational. It’s the course he’d hand a new analyst or a seasoned colleague today, knowing they’d come back with sharper output and a defensible record.

Early feedback

Questions

Before you enrol.

The questions practitioners ask most often.

How long does the course take to complete?
The full course takes around 3 to 4 hours, broken into five modules of 30 to 65 minutes each. It's structured for focused sessions rather than one sitting — you can complete it across a few evenings or a weekend. You have lifetime access, so there's no pressure to rush.
Do I need any coding or technical background?
Not at all. The course is built for financial crime practitioners, not engineers. There is no coding, no model training, and no data science. If you can write a memo, you can write the prompts taught in this course.
Is this just for AML, or does it cover sanctions and KYC too?
It covers the full operational financial crime landscape. The six prompt workflow chains in Module 3 address AML investigations, SAR/STR narratives, sanctions and PEP documentation, adverse media reviews, MI and reporting commentary, and QA review feedback. The skills transfer directly to EDD, CDD, and most analyst-level financial crime work.
Will this become outdated as AI changes?
The course is deliberately tool-agnostic and built around prompting fundamentals and governance principles — not specific models or features. ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini, and whatever comes next all respond to the same prompting principles. The frameworks you learn here apply across tools and across versions.
Is this tool-specific, or does it work with Microsoft Copilot / internal tools?
It works with whatever AI tool your firm has approved. Module 4 specifically addresses working within real firm constraints, including Microsoft Copilot and AI features embedded in internal platforms. The prompts and workflows are designed to be applied in the AI environment you already have access to.
Can my team buy this together?
Yes. Team licences are available for AML, compliance, and financial crime teams from 5 seats upwards, with volume pricing for larger groups. Reach out via the team licensing link in section 11 and we'll discuss what works for your team.
What's the refund policy?
A 30-day money-back guarantee, no questions asked. If the course isn't right for you within 30 days of purchase, email us and we'll refund you in full.
What if I'm completely new to AI?
That's fine — Module 1 starts from the foundations. You don't need prior AI experience. What you do need is some operational experience in financial crime, because the course assumes familiarity with terms like SAR, KYC, adverse media, and sanctions screening. If you understand those, you'll be able to follow the course comfortably.
Will I get a certificate?
The course does not currently issue a formal certification. What you receive is something more practical: five professional assets you'll keep and use in your actual work, plus a set of prompt workflow chains you can apply from day one. This is a working course, not a certification programme.
How is this different from a generic AI course?
Generic AI courses teach you how to use ChatGPT. This course teaches you how to use AI for the specific tasks financial crime professionals do every day — SAR writing, KYC summaries, sanctions documentation, MI commentary, QA reviews. It's also built around the governance and defensibility requirements of regulated environments, which generic courses don't address. Built by a 20-year financial crime practitioner, for financial crime practitioners.
