Testimonials

A truly enriching experience, both professionally and personally. From all the keynote speeches and discussion forums, we continue to learn more and more about this fascinating world of AML.

My gratitude to each and every one of those who make the SENTINEL project such a well-established initiative across the region. To my colleagues from all the institutions using the anti-money laundering and fraud modules, I extend an invitation to stay in touch, sharing your experiences, insights, and typologies. By having each other’s backs, we can achieve greater success—because sooner or later, any of our institutions could become a target of organized crime.

A fraternal embrace to all, and I remain at your service in Ecuador.

We exchanged valuable information to continue fighting fraud alongside leading professionals in the field. Additionally, we enjoyed the planned activities, where we had the chance to network, unwind, and share moments of laughter.

As if that weren’t enough, I made friends from many different countries, wonderful people who will stay in my heart forever.
