Join us at the stunning Bold Campus, Frankfurt
10 - 11 November 2025
Nestled deep in the serene forests of the Taunus mountains, just 30 minutes from Frankfurt, Bold Campus offers a unique and inspiring setting for a truly exceptional gathering at The FRC Leaders Convention - Germany.
Set against the backdrop of nature, this luxury 2 day retreat event, including a dinner and overnight stay at the fabulous Bold Campus is designed to foster strategic thinking, deep conversations, and meaningful peer-to-peer exchange in a private, focused environment.
More than just another conference, this is a retreat for leaders ready to step away from the noise, connect with fellow experts, and return with actionable insight.
CONTENT Overview
The FRC Leaders' Convention will delve into key strategies for leading and developing financial crime, compliance, and fraud teams within the German regulatory landscape. With a focus on BaFin-aligned requirements and EU directives, topics include real-time fraud and AML convergence, the ethical and effective use of AI/ML in detection, and collaboration through public-private partnerships. The discussion will also address cross-border compliance within the EU, sanctions screening (including relevance to German foreign policy), and new risks such as crypto-enabled crime and trade-based money laundering. Additional focus will be given to regulatory reporting (including SARs in Germany), KYC/KYB, enhanced due diligence, and the integration of RegTech to improve operational efficiency and governance.
