Session Description

Financial crime can extend far beyond a single transaction, organization, or jurisdiction. Understanding how these connections come together is critical to addressing increasingly complex financial crime.

Join Patrick Duffy, Supervisory Special Agent with the FBI Philadelphia Field Office, for an inside look at the FBI Philadelphia Field Office’s role in initiating, investigating, and prosecuting complex financial crime cases in and around Philadelphia and beyond.

This session will explore the FBI’s role in addressing complex financial crime and the importance of collaboration across financial crime disciplines, organizations, and jurisdictions. Attendees will better understand how the pieces of a complex financial crime case come together and why following the money remains central to the broader picture.
