We offer education and training, consultancy, research and whitepapers, media and communication, and awareness campaigns designed to change behaviour.

our mission: Financial Crime Prevention
Financial crime isn’t just about numbers on a balance sheet, it’s about people’s lives. Every scam, every fraud, every laundered pound has a ripple effect. It erodes trust, exploits the vulnerable, and undermines the economy. At the Financial Crime Lab, our mission is to turn evidence into action. We bridge the gap between research and real-world practice, helping organisations build resilience against scams, fraud, and money laundering.
We believe progress comes from more than compliance or quick fixes. It requires insight, innovation, and collaboration across sectors. By combining criminological research, frontline experience, and behavioural science, we design smarter systems, empower people, and safeguard communities.
Our purpose is simple but ambitious: to reduce the human and financial harm caused by financial crime, and to create a safer, fairer economy for everyone.
Join our Community
It’s a practical learning space for people working in, around, or impacted by financial crime prevention. A place to share evidence, challenge assumptions, test ideas, and build smarter, more humane approaches to reducing harm.
If you care about prevention, not just detection, and want to move beyond headlines and into understanding – you’re very welcome to join us.
