An Illicit Affair: Human Trafficking and Financial Crime

Written by Lauralee Dhabhar | Apr 30, 2021 2:47:51 PM

With human trafficking generating $150.2 billion in revenue per year, it is unsurprising to find this activity intricately linked to high-level financial crime. As such, financial institutions already on the lookout for money laundering and other illicit financial crime can also play a key role in uncovering the organizations and individuals involved in the trade of human flesh.

Our panelists for this webinar are subject matter experts with different perspectives on trafficking and financial crime, but all of them share the goal of catching the criminals as rehabilitating the victims. Watch the recording to understand more about how banks work with law enforcement, the challenges of tracing these crimes, and what resources are available for both stopping the illicit activity and rehabilitating the victims.
