The Compliance Challenge
Financial applications require:
- PCI-DSS compliance: Masked credit card numbers
- SOX compliance: Audit trails, immutable logs
- Realistic transactions: Power-law amounts, temporal patterns
- Fraud detection: Anomalous patterns for ML training
- Multi-currency: Exchange rates, conversions
