What 1LoD does

1LoD is a London-based B2B events and intelligence company serving non-financial risk and control practitioners at financial institutions. Founded in 2017 and acquired by Infopro Digital Services Limited in December 2024, it operates as a subsidiary within the Infopro Digital group. The company produces the XLoD Global conference series (London, New York, and Singapore), Financial Crime Summits in three cities, virtual Deep Dives on specialized topics, and private Leaders' Networks for senior risk professionals. It also publishes proprietary benchmarking surveys covering financial crime, 1st line risk, and surveillance, distributed via the Knowledge Hub content platform. The technology stack consists of a digital event platform with virtual event capabilities, benchmarking survey tooling, and a content management system (Knowledge Hub), with supporting mobile applications for event access.

The business model combines four revenue streams: delegate admission fees priced at $1,795-$2,245 for financial institutions and $3,595-$4,495 for non-financial institutions per event; sponsorship packages sold to technology vendors and service providers (including Fenergo, Behavox, Nasdaq, Moody's, and others); benchmarking survey report sales; and Knowledge Hub subscriptions. Customer segments include G-SIB risk and control functions, financial crime and AML practitioners, asset management compliance leaders, regulators, and technology vendors seeking access to senior decision-makers. Go-to-market is event-driven, with brand authority reinforced by three consecutive years of Conference & Event Awards recognition culminating in a 2025 Event of the Year win.
