Bringing Together Global Experts to Spearhead Collaborative Efforts in Building the Future of Digital Trust

SINGAPORE, May 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Sumsub, a global full-cycle verification platform, today announced the launch of its inaugural flagship event—What The Fraud Summit (WTF Summit), the first visionary summit to beat the global fraudemic. The first edition of the event is set to take place at Andaz Singapore from November 19 to 20, 2025. With an assembly of over 500 experts and industry leaders from fraud prevention, compliance, financial crime, regulation, and product innovation, the WTF Summit aims to bridge the gaps between fraud prevention, AI-driven security, regulatory shifts, and digital resilience to formulate actionable anti-fraud strategies to drive the future of digital trust.

Another alarming trend observed globally is that nearly half of companies and end users worldwide reported being victims of identity fraud at least once last year, and businesses suffer a loss of approximately $300,000 per fraud event.

Our goal is to collaborate with top minds to craft holistic strategies to create a safer digital future for everyone.”
