The Network Effect: The power of networks in due diligence and investigations
From illicit network structures utilised for criminal gains, through to growing public/private network collaborations, anti-financial crime professionals’ must understand the role of both positive and negative networks in the current ecosystem. Harnessing the network effect to its maximum potential is increasingly important in the fight against financial crime. In a complex and interdependent world, you cannot conduct investigations or due diligence in isolation, understanding the networks available to you is everything.
In this webinar we will explore:
- what is the network effect and why it is important in the context of financial crime
- positive vs negative networks
- the evolution of public/private partnerships and collaborations
- how to benefit from the network effect and expand your own networks
This webinar in association with Ground Truth looks at how to utilise public-private partnerships, and best practice forums to your advantage.
