New directions in financial crime

November 29 @ 9:00 AM 6:00 PM

Financial crime is a global issue that has a significant impact on Australia’s society and economy. Related offences come in different forms (e.g. bribery, corruption, fraud, money laundering) and are committed by different actors, with various motivations. The different sectors involved range from small businesses to large banks and from the real estate to the art market. Unsurprisingly, financial crime has been the subject of significant academic study for decades, as well as being an area of national and international concern for policymakers, regulators, and law enforcement. The aim of this symposium is to bring together different experts to discuss a wide variety of contemporary issues and challenges in this context.
