Human trafficking is not a financial problem – it’s a people problem. Escalating global conflicts and rising living costs push more vulnerable people toward exploitation. The urgency to act has never been greater. Change is possible.
🎬 🏦 How is the payments industry fighting human trafficking? Human trafficking generates hundreds of billions in illicit proceeds each year. It’s one of the most profitable predicate crimes – just behind drug trafficking and fraud. And it’s growing. Cases of human trafficking increased 28% in 2024, according to a UNODC report released earlier this month. The urgency to act has never been greater. Change is possible. And it must happen now. To shine a light on this urgent issue, we are proud to present “Caught in the Light” – a groundbreaking documentary exploring how financial institutions are fighting human trafficking. Featuring insights from industry experts, survivors, and advocates, the film highlights the crucial role banks play in detecting and disrupting trafficking operations. Key voices in the documentary include: ⭐️ Megan Lundstrom, Polaris (formerly Polaris Project) ⭐️ Nick Lewis OBE, Standard Chartered ⭐️ Christopher Bagnall, Quantexa ⭐️ Clark Frogley, Quantexa, Former FBI Official ⭐️ Christopher Kemp, Anti-Human Trafficking Intelligence Initiative (@TeamATII) ⭐️ Silvija Krupena, CFCS, CAMS, RedCompass Labs RedFlag Accelerator As Human Trafficking Prevention Month kicks off tomorrow, we hope this film will inspire meaningful conversations and drive action to combat this growing issue. Together, we can shine a light on this critical problem and work toward a solution.

🚨 Child sexual exploitation is a hidden global crisis, affecting every country. It’s been ignored for too long. Today, we'll reveal what it looks like—step by step. Stage 4 of 6 – Isolation 🎯 By this stage, the offender has been grooming the victim for quite some time and a relationship has been formed. This “special connection” is further reinforced when the offender convinces the child that they love and appreciate them more than anyone else…even parents. Sometimes parents can unknowingly feed into this through praise and appreciation of the relationship that is secretly becoming more and more inappropriate. This #GivingTuesday, help us fight back and protect children online. Your support helps us stay ahead of threats and create a safer world for all. 🚨 Give Here: https://lnkd.in/eHTmApdJ #OnlineChildSexualExploitation #OnlineSafety #onlinesafetytips #OnlineSafetyMatters
