The Cambridge International Symposium on Economic Crime first convened over 40 years ago as a result of widespread concern that both the development and the integrity of the global financial system were at risk from those who engage in economically motivated crime, and those who would assist them.

From the very beginning it has been our mission to bring together anyone who has a responsibility to prevent and inhibit such abuse–no matter their background–to better understand the threats and to facilitate co-operation and collaboration in protecting all our economies and societies. The Cambridge symposium has, over the years, grown into a unique international platform that makes a real difference to the control of economically relevant crime and misconduct across the world.

The Organising Institutions of the Cambridge International Symposium on Economic Crime acknowledge the generosity of Laurence Broderick in permitting the symposium since 1990 to use the pen and ink drawing of the Chimney Entrance to Jesus College, Cambridge on the front of this programme.

The symposium is not, and never has been, just a talking shop or junket for special interest groups. Rather it survives and prospers because of its unique ability to convene a diverse spectrum of delegates, returning and new, who are seeking practical solutions and networking opportunities to facilitate the protection of their economies and their institutions.

8 days

The symposium runs over eight days and offers hundreds of opportunities to connect formally and informally. Come for the week; or drop in for a day!

120+ sessions

41 years

Now in its 41st year, the symposium is an internationally renowned forum for bringing practical solutions to combat economically motivated crime.

650+ experts

The symposium’s emphasis has always been practical; therefore, we bring together experts across a range of fields to share knowledge and expertise.

100+ countries

With delegates from over 100 countries, the symposium is truly international and a unique opportunity to forge cross-border connections.

2000 participants

The focus for the 41st symposium is suspect assets. In addition to its keynote speeches and focal discussions each day, there are a host of alternative programmes, plenary sessions and workshops to enable you to share your knowledge, garner new skills, and build new connections.

Please note: The programme is liable to amendments and is not definitive until publication of the final draft on Saturday 31 August. Unfortunately with travel restrictions, the disruption caused by various political events, and political situation in the UK it will be necessary to make revisions particularly in regard to overseas participants.
