5th Annual Telecoms Fraud, Revenue Assurance

This leading telecom industry conference cum exhibition organised by Falcon Business Research will take place on 17.01.2017 - 19.01.2017 in Dubai, UAE

After the huge success of Global Telecom Fraud, Revenue Assurance and Risk Management - Dubai (2013), Turkey (2014) and Dubai (2015,2016). Falcon Business Research is coming back for the 5th Annual with a stronger and a wider platform for operators, vendors and anyone who are associated in the industry to learn, network, meeting the key leaders in the industry and take business to the next level.

It’s no secret that telecoms fraud has become one of the most widespread and damaging problems facing the telecoms industry today.

Telecoms fraud comes in all shapes and sizes and impacts across the sector in a number of ways, ranging from attacks against interconnect traffic to direct attacks on PBX and even situations where multiple PBXs are hacked in order to create major challenges in both detection and investigation. An increasing difficulty is the international nature of fraud which makes identifying and subsequently prosecuting frauds nigh on impossible for resellers and authorities alike. Quantifying exactly how much of a financial impact fraud has on the industry is difficult due to the complexity that is associated in recording losses and the surrounding sensitivities that go with a company declaring they have been a victim.Despitethese difficulties the Telecommunications UK Fraud Forum (TUFF) estimates that the telecoms industry suffered losses of around £953 million, a figure based on an average loss of 2.4 per cent against the total operator reported revenue of £39.7 billion.

Each year mobile/cellular carriers lose the equivalent of almost one and three quarter billion US dollars through theft of service and related frauds. Fraud & revenue loss in telecoms continues to be a major priority for big businesses. Fraud Management and Revenue Assurance (RA) in the telecommunication industry are both key factors in maintaining operator’s margins. With the growth in complexity of networks, services and the increasingly sophisticated use of technology by fraudsters, these require an end-to-end approach which proactively identifies future challenges.

Revenue Assurance is therefore a major concern for all operators. There is a general consensus in management that between 1 to 3% of revenues are unbilled and that between 2 to 6% of billed revenues are unpaid.
