Combatting Human Trafficking by Disrupting Money Flows

Human trafficking remains a grave global issue of the modern world. Too often, this crime is hidden in plain sight, all around us.?

Cases of human trafficking can’t be truly understood through statistics alone. Exploitation is a brutal reality faced by millions of vulnerable people who are stripped of dignity and freedom. From forced labour in supply chains to sexual exploitation facilitated by digital platforms, traffickers prey on vulnerability, leaving lives shattered in their wake. The numbers are staggering, with the criminal industry making $495 billion annually.?

We can’t stop what we can’t see. We are confronted with a severe global data gap on this crime. STOP THE TRAFFIK are tackling this through our Traffik Analysis Hub (TA Hub), now the world’s richest dataset of human trafficking with over 7 million data points. The TA Hub visualises data to create a live picture of human trafficking trends, routes, hotspots, recruitment methods, and a range of detailed views based on bespoke filters. Over 150 organisations, including frontline services, law enforcement, businesses, research institutions, and banks rely on this tool to act decisively against trafficking.?

Empowering with Data and Intelligence?

Our work extends beyond awareness raising. Our TA Hub is complemented by further analysis and investigations from our Data and Intelligence Teams that form our service “Exploitation Analytics” designed with and for financial institutions to remove proceeds of this criminal business from legitimate systems. ?

Financial institutions (FI) are pivotal in disrupting trafficking networks. Through Exploitation Analytics, FI’s can leverage cutting-edge technology and intelligence to identify red flags, mitigate risk, and comply with regulatory standards. By safeguarding their operations against exploitation, these institutions have the power to protect at-risk groups from harm and lead their sector in ethical standards.??

Collective Action for Change?

Addressing human trafficking demands a unified front. We collaborate with a global network of stakeholders to drive coordinated action. Together, we strengthen prevention strategies, enhance risk management, and foster a culture of corporate responsibility that transcends sectors.?

Preventing human trafficking is not just a goal; it’s a moral imperative. It’s about protecting the vulnerable, dismantling criminal enterprises, and ensuring that every individual’s inherent worth is respected. Our approach combines data-driven insights with compassionate action, aiming not just to disrupt trafficking but to rewrite the narrative of exploitation.?
