Challenges and opportunities of ABC today From ABC to Integrated Border Management International standardisation and interoperability Nationwide border management integration Balancing Security and facilitation International Country Context slide: providing summary of various levels which imply their own challenges; Border management is not just local control on individuals. Focusing, not only on ABC locally, but on a holistic view to unlock full potential is the main opportunity Vision-Box is now focusing on the next steps. Ensuring that security locally has been achieved. We will focus on the challenges of ABC from a nationwide perspective and how the resolution of these will impact the other two. People

The Nationwide Border Control Framework (NBCF) Benefits: Balancing security and facilitation at the borders Enhanced National Security: Reduction of illegal travelers Automatic identification of overstays Enhanced Risk Assessment and Threat Identification Fast Identification of Potential Threats Enhanced Immigration System Integrity: Improved information security and intelligence Increased efficiency in investigations Facilitation of Travel and Trade: Reduction of border crossing times Enhance passenger profiling Improved flow of goods at land borders Economic and Social Benefits Benefits of such an approach. Integrated border control solution is the next level of challenge for ABC and this will benefit every stakeholder, as well as every level of the pyramid: full centralized control of operations within a country’s borders mean more effective local control, but it means as well an improvement of cross-border security, we open doors to wider cross-border collaboration opportunities as well as enhanced national cooperation between the different actors. Obviously, such an approach has a cost, which can be easily balanced by a smart and sustainable program that put the traveller at the core of the equation, allowing all involved stakeholders in creating innovative financial models to sustain the investments to the benefit of the national economy.
