All levels of government and the private sector now engage in various forms of online transactions. As much as security systems are in place to prevent and detect fraud, the landscape is constantly changing at a rapid rate.
As the methodologies employed by fraudsters continue to increase in sophistication, organisations need to constantly stay ahead of the game and be continuously equipped to thwart and address incidences of fraud.
The 5th Australian Fraud Summit 2016 will bring together thought leaders in the public and private sectors to discuss new thinking in preventing, detecting and responding to fraud in an increasingly complex technological era.

This conference will address:

• Strategies to prevent, detect and respond to increasingly sophisticated fraud methods
  
• Methods to increase resilience to cyber exposure and secure information
• How to equip your organisation to address increased infiltration on online channels
• Embedding a culture of empowering and educating staff about fraud risk
• Tools to improve internal fraud management

• Iain Johnston, Head of Financial Crimes and Security, Prudential Corporation Asia (Hong Kong)

The World Congress on Risk 2015 (see flyer) will be the fourth in the series of World Congresses organized by the SRA and its partner organizations. SRA held the first World Congress on Risk in Brussels, Belgium in 2003, the second World Congress on Risk in Guadalajara, Mexico in 2008, and the third in Sydney, Australia in 2012.

The overall theme of the 2015 World Congress will beRisk Analysis for Sustainable Innovation, highlighting sessions that identify ways that risk analysis can assist private and public policy makers facing complex and uncertain challenges while maintaining innovation and development. Special emphasis will be placed on the role of risk analysis as a tool for policy making and tradeoffs in situation of limited resources and extreme challenges that are characteristic of developing countries. A list of members of the Organizing Committee for the World Congress is available here.

At a later date, we will post information about submissions of poster and paper abstracts, the program (including plenary speakers and associated breakout sessions), hotels in Singapore, conference registration (by April 2015), and travel arrangements.
