The increasing sophistication of cargo crime

from IUMI Podcast · host iumi

Cargo crime has existed in most regions of the world for centuries. Until relatively recently, it has usually taken the form of theft, sometimes with aggression. Today, we are seeing a worrying growth of fraud and deception, encouraged by technology and AI. “Fake Carriers” are emerging to steal cargo non-violently but with great success.   This podcast explores the topic with the expert input of Thorsten Neumann, President & CEO of the Transported Asset Protection Association (TAPA EMEA) and Björn Hartong, Global Head of Risk Engineering Marine, Security & Supply Chain at Zurich Insurance. Björn is also a member of the IUMI Loss Prevention Committee.
