The Financial Crime Leaders' Network

Financial crime is an ever-present threat for banks of all sizes. The value of what criminals seize is only part of the cost. There are also penalties, civil judgments, and the cost of litigation and conducting investigations. Bribery, fraud, and cybercrime are increasingly sophisticated. Regulatory agencies are demanding more accountability. The Financial Crime Leaders’ Network brings together the world’s most senior anti-financial crime professionals at the forefront of developing best-in-class practices to discuss practical solutions.

What is it?

  • The Financial Crime Leaders’ Network (FCLN) is a private, invitation-only series of meetings for (10-20) senior decision-makers to discuss the most pressing financial crime challenges
  • The FCLN is underpinned by a group of Founding Members who are senior Managing Directors running financial crime at the world’s leading banks, either at a regional or global level. The Founding Members are committed to attend the meetings in their region and work with 1LoD to set the agenda. Note, other Managing Directors and financial crime leaders attend the meetings too as guests
