QEII Conference Centre Broad Sanctuary Westminster, London SW1P 3EE United Kingdom
The financial sector flagship event for economic crime, the Economic Crime Congress 2026, returns on Thursday 3 December 2026 at the iconic Queen Elizabeth II Centre in London.
Building on last year’s theme of collaboration in action, this year’s Economic Crime Congress will look at how the UK’s collective effort can be translated into global action. As the UK steps into a defining period, from the UK Presidency of FATF to the forthcoming hosting of the G20 in 2027 and a renewed focus on domestic economic crime reform, the Congress will explore how the UK can help shape the international response to illicit finance, fraud, sanctions evasion and wider economic crime.
Bringing together government, law enforcement, regulators and industry, it will consider how the UK financial sector can demonstrate best practice, strengthen cross-border collaboration and turn shared ambition into practical action against one of the most complex threats facing society and the economy.
The overarching theme of the day will be to bring to life the harms and impact of economic crime, and through sessions and insights from our expert speakers, discuss what needs to be done to build a better society and community, domestically and globally.
Our 2025 event brought together over 550 senior leaders. Tackling economic crime requires a united approach, with collaboration across government, regulators, law enforcement, financial services, technology and telecommunications firms and consumer groups.
ECC 2026 will feature even more high-profile speakers, interactive discussions, and practical solutions for tackling economic crime across financial crime, corruption, sanctions, fraud and intelligence.
To explore the key insights, debates and standout moments from the Economic Crime Congress 2025, see our wrap-up.
