The next frontier: a focus on fraud Roundtable
Earlier this year, we published a special report on the ever-changing landscape of fraud. We are delighted to expand on this report, by broadcasting a live virtual roundtable event.
Event overview
The pandemic has altered life in many ways over the past twelve months. The financial sector is not exempt from such changes, and as a result, a new wave of fraud is on the rise.
A significant rise in Impersonation fraud, Artificial Intelligence and Investment scams have led many to ask what measures are being taken to protect vulnerable customers?
In this round-table session, our panelists will examine the current fraud landscape, and discuss how collaboration between the financial services, government and public sectors can tackle the evolving tactics used by fraudsters.
