Building an AML Transaction Monitoring Rules Engine

Typology rules, sliding-window aggregation, alert scoring, and case management that feeds STR/SAR filing — treated as a streaming systems problem, not a compliance checkbox.

Teaches how to build AML transaction monitoring: typology rules (structuring, rapid movement, layering), sliding-window aggregation, alert scoring and deduplication, and case management feeding STR/SAR filing.

Implementing the FATF Travel Rule Between VASPs

How to exchange originator and beneficiary data between crypto services before a transfer settles: counterparty discovery, IVMS101 payloads, and pre-transfer verification that gates the on-chain send.

Teaches how to implement the FATF Travel Rule between VASPs: originator/beneficiary PII exchange protocols (IVMS101, TRP/OpenVASP), counterparty VASP discovery, and pre-transfer verification before on-chain send.

Resolving Ultimate Beneficial Ownership as a Graph Problem

Model corporate ownership as a graph, propagate percentages through the chains, handle the cycles that break naive traversal, and surface every natural person who controls more than 25 percent — with the evidence path attached.

Teaches how to compute ultimate beneficial ownership: modeling ownership as a graph, percentage-through-chain calculation, control vs ownership thresholds, and cycle handling to surface >25% beneficial owners.

Building a Sanctions Screening Engine That Controls False Positives

How to ingest watchlists, match names across scripts and spellings, and turn a fuzzy score into an auditable clear, alert, or block.

Teaches how to build sanctions/watchlist screening: list ingestion (OFAC/UN/EU), transliteration and fuzzy name matching, scoring thresholds, whitelisting, and rescreening on list deltas to control false positives.
