from FINCIRCLE · host Edgar Angeles
In 2025, the battle against fraud continues to grow more complex and intense, driven by technological advancements and increasingly sophisticated tactics from cybercriminal's. Identity fraud cases more than doubled from 2021 to 2024, according to Sumsub’s (Sum and Substance Ltd.) most recent Identity Fraud Report. A striking 67% of companies reported an increase in fraud during this period. The report also highlights a global shift towards more complex and hybrid fraud schemes. AI has become a pervasive tool, with deepfakes now representing 7% of global fraudulent activity. Moreover, AI is widely used in fake document production—the fraud type now accounting for a striking 50%, of all fraud categories, according to the Report. As a result, companies, users, and regulators face mounting pressure to adapt their defenses in real-time. In view of these, we've invited Penny Chai, Vice President for Business Development in Asia Pacific at SumSub as she walks us through the 2024 Identity Fraud Report and its significant relevance to our digital economy.
