SENIOR AFC leaders from the UK, Nordic and Benelux countries are attending the AML Intelligence ‘Keeping Up with White-Collar FinCrime’ breakfast briefing on Thursday next. (March 31).
White collar crime and fraud are perennial issues and the pandemic has created new money laundering environments outside the contingency plans many organisations have in place.

Organised in association with BAE Systems Digital Intelligence, the breakfast briefing will hear from the top Northern Europe thought leaders and industry experts around their views trends on fraud, white collar crime and AML.
