Banking Fraud Summit CZ & SK 2026
Dear Fraud Fighter,
The 15th Banking Fraud Summit will take place this May 25-26 in Brno, bringing together banking professionals in a secure, sales-free environment to unite against fraud. Fraudsters operate in well-organized networks, and it goes to their advantage if banks don’t collaborate effectively. That’s why we created this initiative — to provide a closed, trusted space where experts can share knowledge, experiences, and strategies to combat fraud.
This international conference, with Czech as the official language, is specifically designed for CZ & SK banks. You can look forward to a 9/10 experience. Anyone committed to fighting fraud, including CISOs, CSOs, Heads of Fraud Prevention, Fraud Analysts, and other experts from across the region, is more than welcome to join us and make a difference.
Jakub Zalman
Founder & Head of Banking Fraud Summit
