Treasury: a holistic approach to identifying and preventing payments fraud
16 December 2021 | 3:00pm GMT | 4:00pm CET
Payment fraud is increasing in frequency and magnitude as is the average loss per fraud. Attacks are becoming more professional and targeted to specific companies’ processes and organizational footprint. Although there is no ‘one size fits all’-approach there are some concrete patterns emerging.
- How can you protect your company’s assets?
- What is the best practice in terms of processes and controls?
- How can you work together with banks and other suppliers to mitigate risks?
In this webinar you will hear about the latest trends in fraud, the best technologies and corporate practices to avoid extreme events and why collaboration among all stakeholders is key.
