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.

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?
