## Source summary

In a PYMNTS interview, AWS institutional-payments executive Nilesh Dusane discusses how banks must combine KYC, fraud controls, fees, recipient validation and rail selection as instant and cross-border payment options expand. He describes orchestration and AI-assisted rule interpretation with human oversight. These are expert views and implementation examples, not a newly announced bank deployment or measured performance result.

## Why it matters
