In ACFCS’s Emerging Risks series, we sit down with Timea Nagy, Founder and CEO of Timea’s Cause, to update the fincrime community regarding intelligence gathered on the current state of human trafficking (HT) along the western borders of Ukraine. Timea provides her expertise on how financial institutions around the world can be proactive in the fight against HT in this region, how traffickers are identifying and perpetrating their operations, and what individuals can do to safely volunteer their time and money to this humanitarian crisis.

The ACFCS Emerging Risks series features interviews with thought leaders and change-makers who are tackling the latest challenges and most pressing threats across the financial crime spectrum.
