Overview[]
The International Consumer Protection Enforcement Network (ICPEN) is an informal network where domestic enforcement authorities join forces to enhance international consumer protection enforcement. It includes authorities from 36 countries plus two observers (the OECD, and the European Commission). ICPEN is mainly used as a platform of collaboration where member country enforcement bodies exchange information on fraud cases affecting consumers from their jurisdiction through monthly teleconferences, national reports, and the econsumer.gov website.
