A manifesto for the financial crime challenges facing the next government
From our UK edition
As we approach the final days of the UK general election campaign, it is crucial to consider the robustness of our financial system. This isn’t about tax policies or government spending, but the regulations and safeguards necessary to combat financial crime and protect people’s savings. Our team collaborates with more than 1,000 companies globally to achieve this goal. Looking ahead to the new parliament, we anticipate the next government will face three major challenges in this area. Online fraud. The pandemic saw an explosion in fraud as criminals exploited mobile technology, industrialising fraud in unprecedented ways. Our research shows UK consumer anxiety is high, with 88 per cent concerned they may be at risk of fraud.
