According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Internet Crime Report in 2022 there was a 50 percent increase since the prior year in cybercrime including scams, phishing, fraud, etc with over $10 billion USD reported in losses. The sophistication of these attacks is also increasing as we see the use of Artificial Intelligence to create deep fakes, improve their malware attacks and create more realistic phishing hooks.
The rise of attention to pressing issues such as ESG and sanctions offer another angle for financial crime professionals to consider with many ESG offenses finding themselves tied to fraud, bribery, or corruption. As we move into 2024, many factors will play into the challenges professionals will face, the innovations/solutions that will emerge, and the regulation that will help guide this.

Leaving the Big City to A Different Scenery
While no longer the leader in financial capital globally, London still enjoys its position as the top financial centre in Europe. The geographical position of London means the financial centres here are able to catch both the APAC markets in the morning and the US markets in the evening. Recently, Brexit caused concern over the longstanding position the City of London has enjoyed as an international financial hub and while there have been quite a few negative impacts, the City of London’s position at the top is still quite firm alongside Wallstreet.
When it comes to regulatory and technological changes and frameworks, the UK still leads the way with the US looking towards the east. This is particularly true in financial crime functions as the UK is quite advanced in data technology which is instrumental in effective anti-financial crime. Getting away from the city to enjoy a resort event in the cozy English countryside will allow attendees to connect and share knowledge in a slower paced setting.
Key Takeaways:
This dual stream agenda will look at Framl in one theatre as Fraud and AML teams find themselves working closer together as well as KYC/Cyber on their own theatre with breakout rooms to host interactive workshops and roundtables. With a mix of panel discussions and end user/sponsor messages, we will deliver thought provoking and educational content that will engage the attendees and encourage participation. To help promote networking opportunities there will be 1-2-1 meeting scheduled as well as an exhibition area to showcase the solutions to the challenges industry professionals are dealing with. We will also be hosting a gala dinner with the awards show to bring attention to the excellence within our industry.
