FID Fraud & FinCrime

Save the date: 17th March 2027 | London, UK

In the UK alone, there was an estimated 4.16 million fraud offences in the year ending March 2025, a 31% increase compared to the previous year. Identity fraud was the most commonly reported risk, accounting for 59% of cases. AI-based and digital-enabled frauds now account for around 80% of all scam activity, with a surge in “fraud toolkits” and deepfake-enabled attacks.

These frightening figures highlight how unrelenting bad actors and shifting attack methods are making it hard for organisations to keep up and implement broad enough protections.

As the scale and complexity of fraud and financial crime continues to rise at an alarming rate, don’t risk compliance failure fines, increased fraud losses, and putting your customers at risk – be part of the conversation and safeguard the future! Join 600+ industry leaders in risk, compliance, cybersecurity, digital identity, AML, KYC, EDD fraud prevention and more for the UK’s definitive Fraud & FinCrime event.

2026 Key themes

Fraud & scams

The increase in volume and sophistication of fraud attacks, from social engineering to insider threats, is a major concern for financial providers. With regulatory changes now shifting the burden of liability, how can innovation and education help to protect customers?

AML & Transaction monitoring

Digital banking has been a game changer, presenting both immense opportunities and significant challenges for Anti-Money Laundering (AML) compliance and sanctions regimes. Financial institutions face increasing challenges in ensuring compliance. Discover the best practices and technologies to stay compliant and minimise the risk of illicit activity.

Technology innovation

Innovations such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, and behavioural analytics are enabling financial institutions to detect and prevent fraud more effectively. But how can those technologies best be integrated into businesses, and what novel tech is on the horizon?

AI-powered impersonation & synthetic ID

Deepfakes, fuelled by cheap Gen-AI tools, and more sophisticated synthetic profiles pose a significant threat for financial institutions during onboarding and KYC checks. However, stronger liveness checks, and innovative authentication technologies are putting up a good fight. What really is the best way to thwart this threat?

Customer due diligence

As regulatory pressures intensify and financial crime evolves, effective Customer Due Diligence (CDD) and Know Your Customer (KYC) practices are more critical than ever. Explore the challenges, best practices, and emerging technologies shaping the future of CDD and KYC in the financial industry.

Regulatory compliance

From the Failure to Prevent Fraud Offence, to the Proceeds of Crime Order, navigating the emerging and ever-changing landscape of fraud and financial crime regulation can be tricky. How can businesses ensure compliance and what are the significant regulatory developments on the horizon?

What others are saying?

"What I really enjoy about this event is how focused people are on the end-user experience when it comes to identity verification. A lot of the folks here are very passionate about it, they have views that allow us as a vendor to really understand how that market is evolving. In particular, we’ve really enjoyed the Hosted Buyer Programme."

VP of Customer Success & European Operations, Trulioo

Honey Badger

“I’m here because I want to connect with people who, like myself, are interested in innovation, fintechs and everything to do with identity fraud. It’s a really great place to meet new people and also connect with existing customers, connect with people who are trying to solve similar problems. And so, I’m here to network and learn."

Co-Founder & CEO, Honey Badger

“As a repeat visitor and sponsor of the Future Identity Festival, I’ve always found that it’s a fantastic place to meet like-minded people who are trying to face the challenges of fraud in the online world.”

VP EMEA, Telesign

“I also want to thank you for all the work put into the event, I enjoyed it, and it was very productive. It was very well organised, and it was easy for me to understand what to do at every moment.”

CTO, Venga

“It was a very valuable experience to meet with fintech partners that can help turbocharge our business. The VIP Hosted Meetings Programme made it easy to connect with relevant solution providers, have focused conversations, and explore potential partnerships without wasting time."

Head of Product, Lending & Savings - N26

“It was a great way to meet with prospective partners and get the conversation started. It made a big difference that these were face-to-face conversations happening all in one venue, with relevant meetings already built into the schedule. The VIP Hosted Meetings Programme helped make the time onsite more focused and valuable"

Senior Manager, Fintech Partnerships - Booking.com

“It was great to get to share experiences and views with other colleagues in our respective panels, as well as to get to speak with different partners and providers that could help us further strengthen our business. The VIP Hosted Meetings Programme made those conversations easy to access, with relevant introductions and a schedule that helped us make the most of our time at the event."

Fintech Revenue Manager, Glovo

"I loved the event: the vendors were very relevant and it was great to find them all in a single place. The crowd was great, the show was great! The programme added value, with quality conversations, smooth organisation and a strong mix of attendees who made the experience worthwhile."

Senior Director, Global Payments, Delivery Hero

“The programme was well organised, and the meetings led to concrete next steps afterwards, such as demos. I had a very good experience, which I think was the result of a well-structured programme and a very well-organised conference.”

Daily Banking Lead, Nordea

“The audience were very focused on reviewing how to improve their own businesses. The VIP Hosted Meetings Programme was very well organised and structured. Always great to learn about new innovation and opportunities.”

Payments Strategy Lead, Virgin Media O2

“The VIP Hosted Meetings Programme was very well coordinated, and I’m grateful to have been included. Everything felt easy to follow, and the meetings were useful. It was a great way to meet the right people, with conversations already lined up for me.”

Identity & Access Management Specialist, Bupa

"In terms of networking with others in industry, getting ideas, that's super useful. You only see one side of financial crime and fraud, mainly from your perspective, from your role. So, I think coming to these events, you hear other people's stories and challenges, which helps your thinking, particularly as a senior leader trying to mitigate financial crime. You need to always get insights from other people. And, I think meeting other suppliers and seeing other tools is really important because where do you start? You can go online and do research, but it's quite difficult to know which ones you want to approach and speak to, and if they are going to be valuable for your business. So, I think here you get to come down, speak to people in person, and actually understand a bit more about what their solutions are offering you as well."
