FinCrime Skills Summit 2026

Running March 10 - 12, this three-day virtual event exclusively for ACFCS members is all about honing the practical skills and applied knowledge you need to thrive in the present and future of fincrime prevention.  

From sessions on hard skills like using genAI for OSINT research and understanding blockchain investigations, to big-picture presentations on how to think like a risk officer, every part of the FinCrime Skills Summit is structured to be highly interactive and immediately useful on the job.

Virtual Workshop | April 8, 2026

Anti-Human Trafficking Workshop

Human trafficking is a fast-growing and brutal financial crime, with devastating consequences for its victims. The good news is that financial crime professionals can play a key role in combating human trafficking – if they can recognize its indicators, understand how to investigate effectively, and craft reports that get useful intelligence into the hands of law enforcement.

Join us for this 3.5. workshop as experts from both law enforcement and fincrime compliance programs share their perspectives and best practices for effective investigations into human trafficking.
