Arva AI

Last month at Fintech Meetup, our co-founder and CEO Rhim Shah, CAMS sat down with Sanjib Kalita for an episode of FintechTalks. Rhim got into the real challenges of deploying AI in banking, how trust and relationships shape the way you sell into financial institutions, and how the industry has evolved from initial curiosity about AI to large-scale adoption. We're excited to finally share the full conversation. Link in comments 👇

Nothing quite like gathering the Compliance Collective at sunset with a view. During The Assembly by ACAMS in Hollywood this week, we hosted an evening by the beach with leaders in financial crime compliance. It was a chance to step away from the conference floor for a more candid discussion on AI validation in the age of agentic systems – from deployment through to governance and regulation. By the end of the evening, one point was clear: Arva AI handles your fincrime compliance, so you can enjoy the beach 😉

We’ve been hosting our Executive Compliance Collective dinner series across a few cities recently, bringing compliance leaders together – this week's dinner in San Francisco felt truly special. In a community where AI is already a core part of how teams operate, it’s coming through more directly in compliance conversations as well. We heard a range of use cases teams are already putting to work in leading financial institutions – different approaches, but a lot of the same questions coming up in the room. Thank you to everyone who joined us, and to Spring Labs for co-hosting.

It’s an exciting time for financial crime compliance - and we’re looking forward to discussing where the industry is headed at ACAMS The Assembly Hollywood. At Arva AI, we’re focused on helping financial institutions scale and streamline financial crime compliance operations using AI agents. If you’re attending and want to talk all things financial crime compliance, feel free to reach out or come find us. See you in Florida!

The question everyone in financial services is grappling with right now: can AI be fast, compliant, and safe at the same time? Rhim Shah, CAMS joined Jason Price (WEX Bank), Kayce Seifert (Mercury), and Erin DeWitt (de Risk Partners) on stage at Fintech Meetup this week to dig into how AI is reshaping risk and compliance. Where it's already delivering, and where the biggest opportunities still lie. The firms getting this right won't just be more compliant. They'll be faster. It's the problem Arva AI was built to solve.

The Executive Compliance Collective: NYC Edition 🗽 Earlier this week, Arva AI brought together a curated group of Compliance and FinCrime leaders from top banks and fintechs for the latest instalment of our dinner series together with Kobalt Labs. While the industry often focuses on the "what" of AI, our conversation took a deeper dive into the "how." As financial institutions move from experimental pilots to full-scale production, we’re seeing a shift toward solving the pragmatic friction between innovation and implementation. Thank you to everyone who joined us for an evening of excellent food and even better insights.

Risk and compliance are being redefined in the age of AI - not just as safeguards, but as systems that enable speed, visibility, and trust. At Fintech Meetup next week, Arva AI will be joining the conversation on how leading teams are making that shift in practice and what it takes to balance innovation with control. Come hear Rhim Shah, CAMS speak on this topic alongside Jason Price, Kayce Seifert, and Erin DeWitt. 📍 The Pulse | 🗓️ 1 April at 10:25 PT
