Abstract:
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a rapidly advancing area of research that encompasses numerical methods to solve various prediction, optimization, and classification/clustering problems. Recently, AI tools were proposed to address the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) challenges associated with sustainable business development. While many publications discuss the potential of AI, few focus on practical cases in the three ESG domains altogether, and even fewer highlight the challenges that AI may pose in terms of ESG. The current paper fills this gap by reviewing practical AI applicat

Abstract:
In today’s complex regulatory landscape, financial institutions face mounting pressure to standardize compliance practices across Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG), and transaction monitoring frameworks. Fragmented compliance efforts often lead to operational inefficiencies, regulatory breaches, and reputational damage. This study proposes an integrated compliance standardization framework that unifies AML, ESG, and transaction monitoring through data-driven governance, cross-functional controls, and risk-based alignment.

Abstract The intervention at the heart of the 40WINKS sleep trial relies on a principle that can be applied to many other nursing home-based interventions: Progress through the intervention requires a gradual and consistent accumulation of skills that build upon one another.
