Whether investigating transnational criminal networks or conducting enhanced due diligence on a risky supplier, analysts and compliance professionals inevitably end up reviewing documents written in languages they don’t understand. Tools like Google Translate and AI platforms like ChatGPT make it easy to grasp the gist of a foreign-language document. But for deep-dive investigations and enhanced due diligence across multiple jurisdictions, these tools have limitations. This masterclass teaches practical techniques for navigating language barriers without requiring native language expertise.
In This Session
- When to Use AI Tools Understand when Google Translate, ChatGPT, and similar services are appropriate, and when they introduce unacceptable risk
- Reverse-Engineering Company Names Techniques for identifying Chinese companies when you only have the English registration name
- Cross-Jurisdictional Name Variations How to recognize and reconcile company name variations across languages, jurisdictions, and regulatory filings
