Improving Financial Intelligence Information Sharing to Combat Money-Laundering and Modern Slavery

With uncertain economic times often presenting new opportunities for criminal activities, all actors—public and private—need to work together to counteract financial fraud, including money laundering. Failure to do so can have devastating consequences, funding other serious crimes, including slavery and drug trafficking.  

ICAEW and IFAC are hosting this hybrid event in Brussels to discuss the urgent need to improve how financial intelligence is shared between all players in the corporate reporting ecosystem. The event will include a screening of All Too Familiar, an award-winning short drama produced by ICAEW in collaboration with the UK HM Revenue and Customs, exploring whether trust is enough to fight money laundering.  

The screening will be followed by a panel discussion with experts on the importance of changing mindsets and the role of professional skepticism in reducing the risk of economic crime, as well as regulatory changes to improve deterrence and detection of money laundering.
