Money Laundering & Financial Crime 2008

7 October 2008

Financial crime remains at the top of the UK government's agenda, perhaps even more so than in the past due to the numerous well publicised cases of breaches of information security and an increased public awareness of the threat of identity theft.

As a result, the pace of policy initiatives has not slackened.  Work in progress includes the thematic work of the FSA's Financial Crime and Intelligence Division; the Serious Organised Crime Agency's "SAR Transformation Project"; the Fraud Review; the proposed "Plea Negotiation Framework"; and the development of more effective approaches to policing fraud.  In addition, HMT Treasury continues to implement its new anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist finance strategy, which it announced last year.

Against this background of significant change in the anti-fraud and money laundering regime, this eighth annual conference brings together a panel of exceptional quality speakers to assess how firms should respond to ensure that they are not only fully compliant, but also make the most of the opportunities presented by these regulatory developments to manage financial crime risk more effectively.
