Convergence Focus Group: Illegal, Unreported, and Unregulated (IUU) Fishing and Banks

Illegal fishing can be difficult to spot in financial transactions alone, even when banks are committed to helping stop it. This whitepaper captures insights from Quantifind’s focus group with banks and other partners on how to connect vessel activity, ownership records, and financial data to build stronger investigative leads. It outlines potential red flags and practical ways for NGOs, technology providers, law enforcement, and financial institutions to share useful intelligence. Download it to explore how coordinated investigations can expose the networks behind illegal fishing.
