CRO risk assessment questions

What is up fraud fighters, and welcome to Fraud Forward!

Today we’re talking about AI transaction monitoring and why it matters so much as agentic banking starts moving from concept to reality.

Because once AI agents in banking move beyond simple chat and into actions, payments, and customer instructions, the risk conversation changes fast.

This is no longer just about whether AI in banking feels helpful.

It is about whether institutions can actually monitor intent.

Trace authorization.

Support banking dispute resolution.

And reduce fraud risk without losing the trust they’ve worked so hard to build.

In this episode, I sat down with Tyllen Bicakcic to break down what agentic banking actually means, why it is gaining traction, and why AI transaction monitoring is going to become one of the most important control layers in this entire conversation.

What I really appreciated about this discussion is that we did not stay at the hype level.

We talked about real use cases.

Real banking friction.

Real fraud questions.

And the very real challenge of how banks can build safer banking with AI without creating new blind spots around governance, payment risk monitoring, and customer trust.

And the reality is this.

If AI agents are going to influence transactions, then transaction monitoring in banking has to evolve right alongside them.
