Join Global Experts at the Groundbreaking WTF Summit in Singapore
Welcome to the WTF Summit: Addressing Digital Trust Challenges
This unique summit serves as a platform for significant conversations and innovative strategies focused on the future of digital trust.
The Urgency of Today’s Fraud Landscape
As threats posed by fraud escalate worldwide, leading verification firm Sumsub gears up for its inaugural What The Fraud Summit (WTF Summit) in Singapore. This momentous event unites over 500 industry leaders from various sectors, including fintech and compliance, to deliberate on pressing challenges in fraud prevention and regulatory compliance. The gathering aims to foster collaboration essential for building robust digital trust across the Asia-Pacific region and globally.
Facing Fraud with Collaboration
The rise of artificial intelligence has opened new avenues for fraud, with criminals using sophisticated tools to exploit vulnerabilities in digital systems. A recent report highlights that the APAC region is increasingly vulnerable, having dropped in global rankings regarding fraud exposure. This signals a concerning trend as the digital landscape expands faster than the defenses designed to protect it.
Andrew Sever, the co-founder and CEO of Sumsub, emphasizes the necessity for collective action in combating these threats. He states, "Fraud presents a global challenge that requires a unified approach for effective mitigation. Our upcoming Identity Fraud Report will provide targeted strategies, assisting organizations in navigating this rapidly changing environment." This summit marks an opportunity for professionals to come together, share insights, and create actionable frameworks for enhancing security.
