The International Banking Federation (IBFED) and its members were proud to represent the global banking industry at the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime and INTERPOL Global Fraud Summit hosted in Vienna in March 2026. One of the key objectives of the Summit included the release of the Global Public-Private Partnership Framework aimed to address the collective commitment to prevent and disrupt fraud, built on shared responsibility.
Anthony Ostler, Chair of the IBFED noted that “Fraud is a shared responsibility, and addressing it requires coordinated action across borders and sectors. The Call to Action on Combating Fraud and the Global Public-Private Partnership Framework against Fraud establishes a clear, practical framework for collaboration that strengthens prevention, improves information-sharing and drives innovation to tackle fraud across its lifecycle. We are proud to stand with public and private partners globally in advancing this collective response.”
