SEON, the fraud fighters, today announces the launch of The Great Debate, which will bring together prominent figures in the fraud management industry to establish which three threats will top the agenda for the sector in 2021. The five leading experts will bring a trend each and will compete for its place amongst the top three.

Being held on 23^rd February, 4pm (CEST), SEON decided to create the live debate after witnessing the dramatic digital transformation across many industries in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, along with the coinciding rise in online fraud. With this change in mind, it set out to see the complete picture of the fast-evolving risk landscape and technology that can be used to combat fraud.

Compiling the unique insights and perspectives of the speakers, the short panel debate will give viewers what they need to know about possible emerging risks and how they can best prepare for them. As a result, by the end of the virtual session, there will be a definitive and agreed list of the top three threats to keep an eye on in 2021.

Industry experts taking part in the debate include:

• Andrew Renshaw, VP of Strategy at Feedzai
• Kevin Gosschalk, Founder and CEO of Arkose Labs
• Luke Reynolds, SVP Global Product - Financial Crime at MasterCard
• Meredith Beeston, Consultant FINTRAIL Solutions
• Pallavi Kuppa-Apte, COO of Chargehound

Discussing the event, Bence Jendruszak, COO and Co-Founder of SEON and host for The Great Debate, said: “Over the past months we have been working hard to give insights into the layout of the fraud landscape during the dramatic transformation the world is going through. This debate presents a unique opportunity to find out what industry leaders are experiencing and what continuing change will look like throughout the rest of 2021.”

Formatted to draw on as much of this insider knowledge as possible, the debate will open with an introduction to the guests. It will then shine a spotlight on each one of them to establish their number one prediction. Then, the debate will commence.

Bence added: “We are excited to see what our guests bring to the table as their insights will be hugely beneficial for viewers. With fraud trends changing so quickly, it’s important that the industry stays one step ahead.”
