Financial Intelligence Against Humain Trafficking

With the support of the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE), MROS launched the ‘Financial Intelligence Against Human Trafficking’ (FIAHT) project, which aims in particular to create a guide to raise awareness among financial intermediaries. Among other things, the guide lists indicators that point to human trafficking and related crimes. This guide serves as a tool for financial intermediaries and traders to identify transactions and behaviours in this area of serious crime.
