Rory Field was honoured to make two presentations to an audience of experts and practitioners at the 43rd Cambridge International Symposium on Economic Crime. The symposium is organised at Jesus College, Cambridge by some of the world’s leading educational and research institutions with the involvement of numerous governmental agencies, the judiciary, the professions, compliance bodies, and the business world. The central topic in 2026 was: “Asset recovery and the Rule of Law”. There were some 2,000 attendees from about 100 countries. Attendees include legislators, policy makers, law enforcement, security and intelligence personnel, regulators, compliance officials, judges, diplomats, solicitors, barristers and academics from many disciplines.
Rory spoke on the following issues: “In focusing on illicit wealth, are we really pursuing Justice” at a session chaired by Lord Davidson of Glen Clova, PC, KC and “Economic Crime: the UK and the Overseas Territories- is there a constructive relationship?”. The symposium works as a key think tank for deep analysis of the challenges of economic crime, leading to developing more realistic and practical international policy and legislation.
