Celent estimates that financial industry spending on AML-KYC compliance technology and operations will reach US$34.1 billion globally in 2020.

Abstract

2020 was a disruptive year in AML because COVID-19 forced financial institutions to reprioritize planned initiatives and redeploy resources to tackle the multifaceted impact of the pandemic. Some planned projects were put on hold while the crisis also called for new enhancements, such as recalibrating detection systems and supporting remote work environments. As a result, IT spending growth in AML-KYC in 2020 was significantly less than its long-term trend.

Celent estimates that spending on technology used in AML-KYC compliance will reach US$9.1 billion and that spending on operations will rise to US$25.0 billion globally in 2020.
