WMI-IBF Masterclass Series: Combatting Fraud & Scams: Fresh Perspectives
This masterclass offers a comprehensive exploration of today’s rapidly evolving fraud landscape and its growing impact on both financial and non‑financial institutions.
In this masterclass session, participants will gain critical insights into high-risk areas such as scams involving Authorised Push Payments (APPs), including the complex and often contested question of when a payment can be truly be considered authorised in the precence of deception or manipulation.
The session will also explore the rise of the crime‑as‑a‑service ecosystem, uncovering how criminal networks are increasingly harnessing artificial intelligence and illicit online marketplaces to industrialise fraud, evade traditional controls, and exploit vulnerable customers at scale.
Join us to hear from Andrew Chow, Head of the Vulnerable Consumer Unit and Legal Counsel of FiDReC and BC Tan, Managing Director & Head of SE Asia Investigations, Diligence & Compliance, Kroll as they share fresh perspectives on emerging fraud trends and forward-looking perspectives to better navigate today’s fraud and scam risks.
