MyFintech Week 2025

Monash University, 2025, Malaysia
Making Ethics Matter: From Principles to Practical Influence
In this session, Pragmax Consulting challenged participants to rethink ethics beyond theory. Using the provocative theme “Nobody Cares About Ethics”, we explored why ethics often feel cosmetic in corporate settings—and what it takes to make them matter in practice.
Highlights included:
🔹 Case study: Facebook–Cambridge Analytica and the complexity of ethical consistency
🔹 How to communicate ethical principles in environments resistant to change
🔹 Practical strategies across AI ethics, AML/CFT, anti-bribery, human rights, and governance
🔹 Insights into how ethics shape regulation, including the EU AI Act’s risk-based approach
The key message: ethics lose influence when we stop talking about them. We must move from principles to practical influence, because real ethics require real action.

NAB Show Las Vegas, 2025, United States of America (USA)
⚡ 5G, AI, Real-Time Data & Compliance Risks
Insights from the NAB Conference, Las Vegas
Pragmax Consulting recently attended the NAB Conference in Las Vegas, where global leaders in technology and infrastructure gathered to explore the impact of 5G, artificial intelligence, and real-time data on digital service delivery and governance.
These advancements present significant opportunities for the financial services sector, particularly fintech, but they also introduce new layers of complexity in compliance, risk, and governance:
🔹 Real-time infrastructure demands real-time controls. With ultra-low latency in payments, trading, and fraud detection, traditional oversight mechanisms may no longer be sufficient.
🔹 Cross-border 5G networks challenge established data localisation and sovereignty regulations, requiring a re-evaluation of regulatory expectations.
🔹 Convergence of financial and telecom infrastructure blurs traditional boundaries, meaning compliance frameworks must evolve to address shared risks across sectors.
🔹 Edge processing introduces new governance challenges, as financial decisions and data handling may occur outside traditional monitoring points.
At Pragmax Consulting, we believe speed is only a business advantage when supported by clarity, control, and compliance. As digital infrastructure accelerates, our role is to help clients embed governance that enables innovation, ensuring growth is both scalable and secure.
