Zepos & Yannopoulos at the Delphi Economic Forum Roundtable on anti-illicit trade

Antonis Giannakodimos, partner, joined the Delphi Economic Forum Roundtable Discussion “Anti-illicit Strategies in the Online Environment’’, held last week with stakeholders from law enforcement, public revenue authorities, academia, cybersecurity and the legal community, sharing insights on the legal and regulatory challenges of combating illicit trade in e-commerce.

The conversation focused on the complexity of cross-border e-commerce, the importance of legal certainty for businesses and consumers, and the need for regulatory frameworks to keep pace with technological developments. Among the proposals discussed were stronger cooperation between competent authorities, increased consumer awareness, the use of AI-powered preventive tools, and enhanced transparency to help consumers make informed decisions.
