Hawk, a global provider of AI-powered anti-money laundering (AML) and fraud prevention technology, has named Marshall Billingslea as Strategic Advisor to support its international expansion.
Billingslea brings over 20 years of experience in sanctions enforcement, financial crime policy, and counter-terrorist financing. He previously served as U.S. Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Terrorist Financing (2017–2021) and President of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) from 2018 to 2019, where he spearheaded the implementation of the global standard-setter’s first cryptocurrency regulatory framework.
In his new role, Billingslea will advise Hawk on strategic growth and regulatory policy as financial institutions increasingly adopt agentic AI to enhance compliance, streamline AML screening, and eliminate costly false positives.
