Nabwire linked fighting tax fraud to combating poor work ethics and lack of integrity nationwide. She concluded that transparency and collaboration (domestic & international) are the pillars to detect, deter, and disrupt tax fraud. #ACFEUganda|#ACFE3rdRegionalConference

A major win: Automatic Exchange of Information (AEOI) with 125+ jurisdictions. URA now has offshore data and is promoting voluntary disclosure. She noted @URAuganda is actively discussing taxing crypto/digital assets due to regulatory gaps. #ACFEUganda| #ACFE3rdRegionalConference

Agnes Nabwire Ag. Commissioner Tax Investigations, @URAuganda stated that Digital Platforms, Hidden Ownership, and data flow speed challenge tax collection. URA is shifting to a "Holistic Government Approach" using data across all MDAs. #ACFEUganda|#ACFE3rdRegionalConference

On cross-border gaps, she echoed the need for international regulatory frameworks for crimes outside local control (e.g., WhatsApp fraud). She proposed the ACFE develop a "fraud scorecard" to rate institutional anti-fraud safeguards. #ACFEUganda|#ACFE3rdRegionalConference

She highlighted the need for legal education. Academic curricula and judicial officers must be enlightened to properly evaluate cybercrime evidence, citing cases lost due to poor evidence collection (e.g., monitor vs. CPU). #ACFEUganda| #ACFE3rdRegionalConference

Dr. Atim Patricia Admin Law Coordinator @Makerere Law school stressed that public institutions and CSOs lack policies and capacity to fight fraud. Weak governance allows crime. She called for consistent, effective prosecution of all breaches #ACFEUganda|#ACFE3rdRegionalConference

She highlighted regulatory gaps in crypto and digital assets and emphasized URA’s holistic approach: leveraging data from all MDAs, enhancing international collaboration through OECD & ATAF, and using AEOI to track offshore accounts. #ACFEUganda #ACFE3rdRegionalConference

Agnes Nabwire @URA_Official noted that digital-age tax evasion thrives on anonymity, untraceable players, and cross-border flows, with key challenges in digital platforms and complex ownership structures. #ACFEUganda #ACFE3rdRegionalConference #FraudAwarenessWeek2025

Dr. Atim emphasized the need for global frameworks and international courts to tackle cross-border fraud and proposed a “fraud scorecard” to assess institutional safeguards and integrity across sectors. #ACFEUganda #ACFE3rdRegionalConference #FraudAwarenessWeek2025

Kay emphasized real-time intelligence sharing across borders (e.g., M-Pesa wallets). To foster integrity, he recommended strong whistleblowing mechanisms and linking ethical conduct directly to staff performance and incentives. #ACFEUganda|#ACFE3rdRegionalConference

The panel discussion is now underway on Cultivating Integrity and Collaboration to strengthen policy and public awareness in the fight against fraud! The esteemed participants are sharing insights: #ACFEUganda| #ACFE3rdRegionalConference

📸 Panel discussion on the theme “Cultivating Integrity and Collaboration: Strengthening Policy and Public Awareness in the Fight Against Fraud,” focusing on the need for unified action, stronger policies, and ongoing public awareness. #ACFEUganda #ACFE3rdRegionalConference

As a path forward, he highlighted cooperation through conventions such as Budapest and AU 2014, and the rise of the “Infection Doctrine,” where a jurisdiction “can act if the cyber harm is felt within its borders.” #ACFEUganda #ACFE3rdRegionalConference #FraudAwarenessWeek2025

Deepfakes and misinformation, he noted, have flooded society, creating new human rights concerns. “The law must evolve,” he said, pointing to amendments like Uganda’s 2022 Act as steps toward addressing digital harm. #ACFEUganda #ACFE3rdRegionalConference #FraudAwarenessWeek2025

While addressing Cross-Border Cybercrime, Hon. Justice Kiryabwire said criminals can now create a “virtual reality” or even a “clone of a person or company,” backed by flawless fake paperwork, a new frontier in fraud. #ACFEUganda #ACFE3rdRegionalConference #FraudAwarenessWeek2025

Furthermore he highlighted the role of technology: while innovation improves systems, it also accelerates new fraud schemes. CFEs must stay alert, informed, and proactive communicating emerging risks in real time to protect citizens. #ACFEUganda #ACFE3rdRegionalConference

Dr. Nsamba highlighted the emerging fraud landscape as a virtual, convenience-driven world marked by the “Three S’s”: more Sophisticated, more Scalable, and more Silent. A far more dangerous shift than anything seen before. #ACFE3rdRegionalConference #ACFEUganda

Dr. Nsamba warned, using Newton’s Third Law: for every defense, fraudsters find an equal and opposite way to bypass it. Organizations cannot rely on stagnant systems they’ve likely already been outsmarted. #ACFEUganda #ACFE3rdRegionalConference #FraudAwarenessWeek2025

President George Mugabi Turyamureeba reaffirmed ACFE Uganda’s commitment to building a stronger, more vigilant anti-fraud community one that serves both Uganda and the global fight against economic crime. #ACFEUganda #FraudAwarenessWeek2025 #ACFE3rdRegionalConference

Steven Adatu, Fraud Risk Manager @stanbicug, emphasized that the insights from the #ACFE3rdRegionalConference should be taken back to our organisations and put into practice. “Real change happens when knowledge is applied.” #ACFEUganda #FraudAwarenessWeek2025

From a regulatory perspective, @BOU_Official reflects on consumer protection guidelines requiring security advice at branches and online. Supervisors verify compliance, but gaps remain, highlighting the need for stronger frameworks. #ACFEUganda #ACFE3rdRegionalConference

Today’s sessions dive into ethical leadership in fraud prevention, cross-border cybercrime and jurisdiction, and a multi-sector panel on strengthening policy, collaboration, and public awareness. #ACFEUganda

Addressing emerging threats, he cautioned that advancing technology brings new fraud methods daily. CFEs must lead the charge in sensitization, continuous communication, and public awareness to stay ahead of cyber-enabled schemes. #ACFEUganda #ACFE3rdRegionalConference

In his keynote, Dr. Andrew T. Nsamba representing the Auditor General emphasized that beyond technical defenses, the fight against modern fraud must be grounded in ethical leadership and transparency. #ACFEUganda #ACFE3rdRegionalConference #FraudAwarenessWeek2025

Justice Kiryabwire underscored that CFEs must answer two key legal questions: “Was there unlawful access?” and “Was there abuse or misuse of the computer system?” These determine whether digital evidence meets the threshold for prosecution. #ACFEUganda #ACFE3rdRegionalConference

Fraud has evolved to the point of creating digital “clones” of individuals or companies complete with flawless but fake paperwork. His example of the complex land title case underscored this alarming reality. #ACFEUganda #ACFE3rdRegionalConference #FraudAwarenessWeek2025
