Beyond Silos #1: Fighting Fraud Together

🔸About the Event Fraud warnings in Luxembourg are running at a record pace. The CSSF issued 103 fraud warnings in the past twelve months, one every three working days and 12% more than the twelve months before. The past month alone produced at least as many warnings as the archive's entire first five years. In 2025, 367 phishing complaints were recorded in Luxembourg, with estimated losses of around €10 million since August 2023, a figure authorities consider an underestimate. Around 700 victims also came forward in 2025 in cases linked to money-mule networks. Fraud is constantly evolving, and protecting people from it is not something any one organisation can do alone. Banks, police, public authorities, consumer organisations, industry bodies, researchers, technology companies and journalists all encounter different parts of the problem. Beyond Silos #1: Fighting Fraud Together brings those perspectives into the same room. On 29 September, DESILO Europe and LHoFT will bring together stakeholders from across Luxembourg to discuss one shared question: How can we better protect people in Luxembourg from fraud? The conversation will look at what people are experiencing today, how fraud is changing, where current prevention and response still fall short, and what different parts of Luxembourg's ecosystem can do next. This means looking at the problem from several angles: prevention and public awareness, victim protection, financial crime detection, law enforcement, industry collaboration, regulation and new technologies. 🔸Who Should Attend? Beyond Silos #1 is for anyone with a role to play in protecting people in Luxembourg from fraud. This includes: Financial institutions (Fraud, Financial Crime, AML/CFT, Payments, Compliance, Security, Data and Technology teams) Police, law enforcement and public authorities Consumer protection organisations and NGOs Financial-sector associations and ecosystem organisations Professional services and consultants specialising in financial crime, fraud, AML/CFT, forensics and regulatory advisory Journalists and media covering finance, fraud, cybersecurity, consumer affairs and public policy Researchers, cybersecurity specialists and technology providers Whether you investigate fraud, protect customers, support victims, shape policy, communicate emerging threats or develop new ways to prevent financial crime, your perspective belongs in this conversation. 🔸Programme 16:30–17:00 | Registration & Welcome Reception - Arrival & welcome 17:00–17:10 | Opening & Introduction - Beyond Silos introduction 17:10–17:20 | Welcome Address 17:20–17:40 | Session 1: Understanding the Fraud Challenge in Luxembourg 17:40–18:00 | Session 2: Where Are the Gaps in Today’s Response? 18:00–18:10 | Coffee Break 18:10–18:30 | Panel Discussion: How Can We Better Protect People in Luxembourg from Fraud? 18:30–19:00 | Exploring New Approaches to Fighting Fraud 19:00–19:10 | Closing Remarks 19:10–20:00 | Networking Reception - Open Networking Refreshments will be available during the event, followed by drinks and open networking.
