About the Conference

Professionals who work to detect and prevent financial crime know all too well that it’s a risky world out there.

Threats are multiplying – from professional money launderers to cybercriminals, lone wolves to corrupt heads of state. Crises and scandals have gone global in scale. New technologies are supporting compliance and enforcement responses, while empowering criminals.

At times, combating financial crime can feel like trying to play a game of chess as the rules change constantly, and some of the pieces move of their own accord.

To stay a step ahead, financial crime professionals are asked to be both protectors and innovators, able to:

• Think on their feet, to counter new threats rapidly
• See the global picture, to understand how international trends inform practical responses
• Tie it all together, to converge skills, best practices and data across fields and departments

The ACFCS 2017 Conference is a conference built for this new reality of financial crime detection and prevention. Professional development is “not a nice to have” but rather a “must do” in order to stay ahead of the curve.

It’s a gathering place for the subject matter experts, thought leaders and seasoned professionals in all fields fighting financial crime – compliance, law enforcement, regulatory and civil society.

A conference where you’ll find leading experts at the speaker’s podium, and sitting next you in the audience. All are driven by a passion to learn, connect and collaborate on better responses to a risky world.

Spaces are limited.
