ICC FraudNet Bangkok Conference on Fraud, Asset Recovery & Cross-Border Cooperation

The world’s leading asset recovery legal network ranked by Chambers Global.

Wat Arun (Temple of Dawn)

Dear FraudNet Delegates and Guests,

Welcome to Bangkok, Thailand’s City of Angels!

On behalf of Tilleke & Gibbins and the Planning Committee, we are honored to be hosting ICC FraudNet’s Fall 2014 Conference on Fraud, Asset Recovery & Cross-Border Cooperation, which will take place in the bustling and dynamic city of Bangkok, Thailand, in The Land of Smiles.

Bangkok, the country’s capital and its largest city, is a fascinating and exotic metropolis with plenty to offer regardless of your interests and tastes. It caters to all, from its truly unique culture, attractions and everyday life in a tropical Asian environment, to spectacular arrays of delicious dining in hundreds of restaurants from street food to haunts of a café society. Multiple times Travel and Leisure magazine deemed Bangkok “The World’s Best City”. The history of Bangkok dates back to the early fifteenth century, and since 1782, when Siam’s capital was moved to Bangkok, the city has become the economic hub of Thailand and the engine of the country’s investment and development. We hope that with the charm of Bangkok and the famous hospitality of Thailand, you will enjoy the city, the countryside, and the conference.

As with FraudNet’s prior conferences, a main objective of the conference is to bring together members of FraudNet from all over the world to share the latest developments and challenges in terms of asset tracing and recovery emanating from fraud and corruption. The conference program includes an extensive range of interesting and pertinent topics, covering Southeast Asia and beyond.

We at Tilleke & Gibbins are certain that the conference will be rewarding for all of us. We look forward to it being a remarkable event and a great opportunity to further build on our strong network, sharing insights among FraudNet members and guests from various jurisdictions worldwide.

Lastly, we would like to thank FraudNet’s strategic partners—Andrews International, BDO, Grant Thornton, Mintz Group, and PwC—for their continuous support.

We wish you a happy and memorable stay in Bangkok and Amazing Thailand.

Kind regards,

David LymanChairman and Chief Values Officer Tilleke & Gibbins
