Morna Spence, Accenture’s UK & Ireland Health & Public Service Fraud Lead, will explore how other industries are applying insights into the motivations and behaviour of fraudsters and developing innovative approaches to fraud prevention.
Morna will focus on:
Fraud is a multi-faceted threat both across the public sector and within a single organization. From deliberate error to organised crime there is no one methodology that can be used to tackle all fraud typologies.
If we accept this as the reality, then
This session will look at the underlying challenges of multi-discipline fraud disruption and methods to deal with them.
With unrivalled experience leading the national police counter-fraud effort, Ian Dyson is ideally placed to chair this expert panel exploring emerging fraud threats – and the way new technology is helping both the fraudster and the investigator.
Informed by a new survey of investigators and white paper on emerging threats, the panel of industry experts will discuss ways of tilting the balance of tech advantage in favour of the investigator.
Fraudsters exploit worry and uncertainty; the COVID-19 pandemic provided more than enough of both creating a thriving environment for fraud. Fraudsters exploited the public’s concerns with scams sales of fake tests, fake vaccines, disinfecting driveways, etc. However, the scale of fraud against governments, providing relief and stimulus funds, was even greater. In recent years, the banking sector has tackled its fraud problem using increasingly sophisticated, biometric, and AI-powered solutions. These solutions detect and deter fraudsters whilst at the same time providing easier access for legitimate users. HSBC alone have publicly reported protecting almost £1 billion from fraud over a 3-year period with their biometric Voice ID solution. Isn’t it time for local and central government to protect citizens to the same extent?
In this session, we’ll address some of the many challenges organisations are faced with:
This interactive session will look at how biometrics is helping organisations crackdown on fraud.
Twenty years ago the emergence of ‘lean thinking’ took the manufacturing world by storm. It introduced the eight forms of waste and showed how ‘binning the waste’ could transform operations. Today many organisations are realising that the same principles can now be translated out of the factory and into office offering the potential to transform the production of ‘information and decisions’ into a more efficient and effective operation.
In this session we’ll look at:
Twice2much discusses the risks to organisations of the significant changes to working practices and controls during the COVID period.
Most importantly we discuss how overpayments could be identified and recovered from Suppliers, quickly, cost-effectively, and with minimal impact on Internal resources.
Recoveries go directly back to the Organisation’s Bank Account.
This un-budgeted Cash windfall could directly ‘help’ against current/future budgetary pressures on jobs, internal resources, and patient/social services.
Learning Points
This session will cover:
Ever wonder how much more you could do with the whole story? Some data is great, but you can’t see the whole picture without comprehensive data capture and the right tech to contextualize and interpret it. Learn how behavioural biometrics is fueling the future of the management and prevention of fraud and scams by producing data focused on the interactive behaviours of fraudsters and legitimate customers alike
The rollout of economic support during COVID-19 created a painful tradeoff between robust counter-fraud controls and ensuring a speedy delivery. Fraud is a data problem, and the right data technology can bridge the divide between these competing policy objectives, by:
We share our experience in helping government organisations worldwide to combat public sector fraud, and how it may apply to problems today.
Join Euan and Victoria for a discussion session looking at how collaboration and innovation enabled a rapid and effective response to Covid-19, and how it can continue to do so.
Examining what bid-rigging tactics look like in practice; sharing lessons from recent cases that can be used to reduce risks in the future; the role of partnership working in identifying and investigating suspect behaviour
