Business Defence Forum: 
The Financial Crime Front Line

At the forum you will hear from Elliot Castro, our keynote speaker, who will share his unique point of view on what strategies need to be put in place to prevent fraud and reduce losses but also on how financial institutions can better understand and tackle fraudsters.   Simon Riondet from Europol will cover the new initiative that Europe is launching and will also present case studies on how Europol tracked down criminals. Our AML roundtable, composed of senior AML experts from banks across Europe, will tackle topical subjects such as Artificial Intelligence and can machine learning help reduce false positives.   Geert Delrue, Detective Commissioner and AML/CFT expert from Law Enforcement in Belgium will cover the similarities and differences between money laundering and terrorist financing.
Our Fraud roundtable will focus on PSD2 and will include Tanya Kjaer from Klarna Bank, a Payment Service Provider, who will give her views on what opportunities PSD2 offers. She will be joined by fraud experts from financial institutions. Representatives from the Belgian Financial Intelligence Unit (CTIF-CFI) and the National Crime Agency will both talk about public-private intelligence sharing to counter financial crime amongst other topics.    Rob Horton, BAE Systems' expert in fraud methods used by criminal groups in banking and insurance will moderate the day.
