NEW YORK - ColoradoDesk -- K2 Integrity, the leading global risk management company, is pleased to announce its upcoming webinar, "Built for Trust: Latitude's 0→1 Compliance Playbook for Modern Cross-Border Payments," presented in collaboration with Latitude Payments.

This one-hour virtual session will take place on Wednesday, 22 July 2026, at 12:30 p.m. ET, and will explore how fast-growing payments companies can build effective financial crimes compliance programs from day one—creating the trust, governance, and controls needed to scale responsibly in today's rapidly evolving cross-border payments landscape.
