Fraud and human error represent two of the biggest threats to an organisation's financial security - with devastating impacts beyond just the bottom line. Beyond the obvious risk of financial loss, fraud can also lead to major reputational damage, compliance issues, and human impacts like layoffs and disruptions to customer service.? It's critical to have robust fraud risk management in place to protect you. Automated tools like AML, KYC, Payment Screening, and Account Name Verification (ANV) can help detect and prevent fraud before it happens.

Our team are attending the ACT Cash Management conference in London today, an exciting event chock-full of valuable insights for treasurers and payment experts. ?? In an inspiring keynote, David Shinkins, MD at Barclays, highlighted the global innovations shaping the future of payments and cash, with fraud still a key driver of automation in finance — which in turn allows treasurers to deliver strategic guidance for their businesses. ?? The UK continues to be a hub for payments and treasury innovation, and ISO 20022 is the next step in payments and statements excellence. In a panel chaired by Naresh Aggarwal, Associate Director at ACT, Anish Kapoor, CEO AccessPay, Elizabeth Leather, Policy Manager at Bank of England, and Brice Goemans, Corporates Product Owner at Swift, talked about the challenges and opportunities of the move to the ISO 20022 financial messaging standard.
