With the increase of financial scams in recent years, creating awareness on scam typologies and understanding ways in which fraudsters operate is crucial to combat financial fraud.
Recently, HSBC in collaboration with the Central Bank of Sri Lanka conducted an informative session for bank staff in Sri Lanka on financial scams prevalent in the country at the bank’s head office in Colombo.
The session featured Guest Speaker Central Bank of Sri Lanka Financial Intelligence Unit Intelligence Analysis Division 1 and 2 Senior Assistant Director/Head Dilan Siriwardana.
