The latest technologies and techniques for the production and issue of banknotes, ePassports, ID cards, visas and other secure documents across Latin America and the Caribbean hsp-latinamerica.com

Welcome

This is what makes High Security Printing™ (HSP) Latin America such a vibrant and rewarding experience. The event, now in its twentieth year, plays host to a series of fascinating case studies and informed debates on how to optimise aspects of the design, production, personalisation and authentication of secure documents. This includes the integration of printed, applied and digital features – as well as the importance of organisations collaborating together to achieve excellence in project implementation, issue and use.

Our 2024 programme will feature sessions focused on currency and ID and secure documents, giving delegates the chance to explore their particular areas of expertise.

Taking place in the InterContinental Santiago, Chile, HSP Latin America will attract an international audience of leading specialists, who will discuss some of the winning strategies, successful examples and innovative new technologies, with a special emphasis on Latin America and the Caribbean.

We hope you will be able to join us and look forward to welcoming you to Santiago.

Pre-Conference Seminars

Tax Stamp & Traceability

Seminar - International Tax Stamp Association (ITSA)

3 June 2024 | Morning

Join ITSA for a discussion on current developments and best practices in the world of tax stamp and track and trace systems for tobacco, alcohol, cannabis and other products subject to excise, customs and other taxes.

The seminar will include presentations from government tax authorities and solution providers and will be of especial interest to those authorities in the region looking to introduce tax stamp and traceability for the first time, or upgrade existing programmes.

The seminar will be conducted in Spanish and English with simultaneous translation.

Identity – The Emerging Behaviour of Fraudsters in the Modern World – The Obstacles in FutureProofing Document Design

3 June 2024 | Afternon

The digital revolution is here to stay. Consumers, and therefore governments and corporations, demand selfservice, and with it, remote document authentication at scale. With recent advances in AI, fraudsters have access to better tooling, and limitless source material. In this seminar, we will take a deep dive into the statistics and findings of Onfido’s 2024 Identity Fraud Report; in particular, the emerging behaviour of fraudsters in the modern world.

We will look at the current methodology employed by organised fraud rings, the importance of document design in their approaches, and potential solutions.

Michael van Gestel, Onfido (UK)

The Future of Cash

The debate around the evolution of money is dominated by technology and the assumption that the digitalisation of money is inevitable and desirable. Technology has been the main driver behind this digitalisation, and while it comes with undeniable benefits in terms of convenience and efficiency, it also generates high social costs.

The objective of this seminar is to broaden the discussion on the future of money. How can we create a monetary system which challenges the narrative of a future dominated by technological innovation? How can we create a future monetary landscape which improves inclusion, increases sustainability, reinforces resilience and protects privacy?

The seminar will address three key questions: How can stakeholders – central banks, banknote printers, cash management companies, banks, fintechs… – contribute to shape a viable and sustainable cash ecosystem in an increasingly uncertain environment? Is cash a public good? Or a basic right? If so, what are the policy implications in terms of access and acceptance, resilience and the funding of the cash cycle? What can we learn for the global evolution of cash demand?

In addition, Round Table Conversations will offer the opportunity to debate the burning questions, ranging from declining transactional demand for cash; the need for a more resilient cash cycle in a multi-crisis environment or the loss of privacy in a less-cash environment.
