His extensive experience within the realm of self-service banking integration has helped many clients provide online\, real-time transaction processing within the EFT community. Clients have included CIBC\, ISM\, IBM\, ACI (Astech)\, ING Direct\, Canadian Tire\, and Royal Bank. With this understanding\, Joseph has been able to link all the existing components to make UseMyServices a leader in real time bank payments technology. \nAmber D. Scott – Founder & Chief AML Ninja\, Outlier Solutions  \nAmber has broad-based financial compliance experience that includes insurance\, mutual funds and banking. In addition to being a Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialist (CAMS) Amber is also a Certified Privacy Professional (CIPP). She also holds a mutual fund sales designation from the Investment Funds Institute of Canada (IFIC) and a first level Fellow\, Life Management Institute (FLMI).  She is also a Certified Bitcoin Professional (CBP). \nAmber completed her undergraduate studies at the university of Waterloo. Her academic interests have always included law and criminology. As a teaching assistant she assisted in the development of the university’s first applied psychology course on criminal profiling. She has also received an MBA from the University of Aspen. \nThe first memory that Amber has about financial crime is hearing her father and a friend of the family discussing the dilemma faced by a local union that had fallen under the influence of an organized crime group. Pension monies had allegedly been deferred into investments that benefitted the crime organization\, but not the union membership. Many discussions with her father followed on the structures that could allow a criminal organization to circumvent the controls in an established organization for their own purposes without suffering any consequences. It was all very confusing and fascinating for a ten year old. \nWhile her confusion has faded\, her fascination never has. Amber is passionate about ethical and legal compliance. Her obsession with understanding the risks and devising actionable solutions has lead her to work in the financial services industry and with Canadian consulting firms. In 2013\, she founded Outlier Solutions Inc. to provide anti-money laundering (AML) solutions to Canadian reporting entities. \nZach Ramsay – Founder & Chief \, Coin Culture Consulting \nZach’s first introduction to Bitcoin was during the 2013 Cyprus financial crisis as depositors sought a safe-haven from widespread bail-ins\, seeing the price triple in a matter of days. As a strong believer of sound money\, Zach immersed himself in this new technology. A year later\, Coin Culture was born and Guelph’s first Bitcoin ATM was launched. Since then\, the infrastructure underlying the Bitcoin network has grown considerably although mainstream adoption has lagged behind. Indeed\, it has become clear that blockchains will be the workhorses of the new digital economy\, while the Bitcoin protocol may end up as a hidden monetization layer for the internet. Consequently\, Coin Culture’s focus shifted from promoting Bitcoin adoption to building blockchains and providing consulting and software services surrounding their implementation. \nZach completed a B.Sc. in Neuroscience at the University of Guelph and was on track for graduate work. But after becoming disenchanted with the academic and publishing system\, his focus shifted to financial services. In addition to Bitcoin and blockchain consulting\, Zach is currently seeking CAMS certification and is working on innovative compliance software. \nSusan Han – Associate Counsel\, Miller Thomson LLP \nSusan Han is a securities lawyer who focusses on regulatory compliance including AML.  Susan’s works at AUM Law\, who has offices in Toronto and Montreal serving clients in the investment funds\, wealth management and retail financial services industries. \nSusan has served as the Corporate Secretary to a number of public companies and large investment fund complexes and their independent review committees (IRCs).  She speaks frequently on directors and officers liability and on corporate\, fund and pension governance. \nBefore joining AUM Law\, Susan worked at Miller Thomson\, Dundee Wealth and Invesco Trimark. \nMatthew McGuire – National Anti-Money Laundering Practice Leader\, MNP \nMatthew McGuire\, CA\, is the National Leader of MNP’s AML Services line\, part of the firm’s Investigative & Forensic Services practice. His invaluable expertise and knowledge of anti-money laundering (AML) compliance ensures that clients effectively stay abreast of regulatory developments and manage risk through business processes and internal controls. \nAs founder of the Canadian Institute for Financial Crime Analysis (CIFCA)\, Matthew utilizes his private and public regulatory and investigative experience to assist clients with AML compliance and financial crime risk mitigation strategies\, with a focus on federally regulated financial institutions\, emerging payment technologies\, and credit unions. His extensive background in strategic and tactical intelligence analysis for the Financial Transactions Reports and Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC) affords him a unique perspective that allows Canadian and international clients to safely achieve success in today’s tightly regulated business climate. \nMatthew has been qualified as an expert witness by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice\, is a Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialist by the Association of Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialists (ACAMS)\, and is accredited as an Anti-Money Laundering Professional by the Bank Administration Institute. \nDedicated to all issues related to AML\, Matthew regularly speaks to reporting entities\, law enforcement\, and prosecutorial authorities. He also shares his knowledge through university lectures\, conferences\, and contributes articles to periodicals. His expertise in forensic accounting has involved him in several investigative cases throughout the world. \nLouis Letellier – Director Public Contracts and Money Services-Businesses\, AMF \nLouis Letellier is Director Public Contracts and Money Services-Businesses at the Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF).
