A video and summary of this session is available here.

In previous webinars the realities of a flourishing environment of opportunities for different types of economic crime offenders was laid bare. We should not be surprised that early statistics on crime patterns are bearing this out. We know many types of offenders seek new opportunities, fraudsters in particular perhaps, and a context where people are scared, unsettled, looking for answers/help/reassurance is ripe for knowledge fraudsters to exploit their trade. In this webinar we invite panellists who have been involved in judging or winning the Tackling Economic Crime Awards (TECAs) to assess the current state of affairs, how they are likely to unfold, and the implications for tackling offending post Covid-19. Topics to be discussed include:

What does the latest evidence tell us about patterns of offending?
How well or badly have those responsible for preventing economic crime performed in the crisis?
What should happen post Covid-19 and why?




Panelists:
Mike Haley, Chief Executive Officer at CIFAs (UK)
Marc McAuley, Head of Counter Fraud Operations at Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy (UK)
Claire Jenkins, Forensic Accountant at Companies House (UK)
David Clarke, Director, Head of Integrity and Multilingual CDD at Guildhawk and Chairman at Fraud Advisory Panel (UK)
