Mules, Scams, and Fraud: Navigating Asia’s FinCrime Ecosystem

About this event

As financial crime continues to evolve across Asia, major banks are facing an increasingly complex threat landscape. Digital fraud, scams, and the growing use of mule accounts are putting immense pressure on financial institutions, regulators, and law enforcement to respond effectively.

In this webinar hosted by FutureCISO and BioCatch, we bring together key perspectives from the banking sector, victims, regulators, law enforcement, and technology leaders to discuss how they can collaboratively combat the rising tide of financial crime.

Join the webinar to learn how innovative, data-driven solutions can help banks detect and prevent fraud before it escalates. Attendees will also hear from a diverse group of experts, including victims of scams, regulators navigating evolving legal frameworks, and law enforcement agencies tasked with pursuing fraudsters across borders.

This multi-faceted discussion will provide actionable insights to help banks strengthen their defenses against the growing threat of financial crime.

Key Topics:

  • Money Mules: How banks can identify and mitigate the use of mule accounts in fraudulent activities across Asia.
  • Fraud Schemes: Impact of scams such as romance fraud, phishing, and fake investment schemes on banks/financial institutions and their customers.
  • Victim Perspectives: How scams and fraud impact customers, and the challenges customers face when interacting with financial institutions post-incident.
  • Regulatory Insights: A deep dive into Asia’s regulatory landscape, exploring how regulators are evolving their approach to better combat financial crime and ensure compliance.
  • Law Enforcement and Cross-Border Collaboration: How law enforcement agencies are tackling fraud and collaborating with financial institutions to bring perpetrators to justice.
