The FinCrime Connection ANZ - November 2025

Insights from the 2025 NZ FIU and ACAMS Conference Financial crime causes real harm to real people.

This month, we unpack three insights from the 2025 NZ FIU and ACAMS Conference in Wellington that matter for ANZ financial crime teams. In this episode:

- Understanding the human cost of financial crime – Modern slavery affects 50 million people worldwide, and traffickers move money through the financial system. We examine practical approaches to detect both victims and perpetrators through transaction monitoring, including watching for unusual patterns and signs of financial control.

- Proliferation financing requires focused attention - This evolving risk covers funding for weapons of mass destruction, including materials, components, and expertise. Mid-range international transactions often bypass standard high-value monitoring rules. We explore how to build detection that specifically addresses these threats.

- The power of collaboration in fighting financial crime – New Zealand's Financial Crime Prevention Network demonstrates how structured information sharing strengthens detection across the sector. We discuss both formal collaboration models and the value of peer conversations in improving financial crime prevention.

Hosted by: Jing Zhang, Business Development Manager and Colin Dixon, CAMS-certified AML Solutions Specialist at ThirdEye Colin has been with ThirdEye since 2012, bringing extensive experience helping clients strengthen their financial crime prevention programmes.
