Creating the Next Wave for Fighting Financial Crime, with FINTRAC’s Sarah Paquet

Kieran talks with Sarah Paquet, Director and CEO of the Financial Transaction Reports Analysis Centre, FINTRAC, live from ACAMS’ 27th annual moneylaundering.com conference in Hollywood, Florida. Sarah discusses FINTRAC’s new role handling sanctions intelligence, managing the revolution in financial technology, and the financial intelligence unit’s ongoing commitment to expand and further internationalize Canada’s anti-financial crime public-private partnerships. While detailing the initial success of the partnerships, including initiatives around human trafficking, online child exploitation and the fentanyl trade, the FINTRAC director says “we are definitely looking to bring [all] our partnerships to an international level” because FINTRAC should be seen not just as Canada’s FIU but as a trusted partner by global industry, law enforcement and the public. ---------- This Financial Crime Matters episode is sponsored by: SymphonyAI - www.symphonyai.com
