Caught in the Light | A Human Trafficking Documentary

Human trafficking generates hundreds of billions in illicit proceeds each year. It’s one of the most profitable predicate crimes – just behind drug trafficking and fraud. And it’s growing. Cases of human trafficking increased 28% in 2024, according to a UNODC report.

Human trafficking is not a financial problem – it’s a people problem. Escalating global conflicts and rising living costs push more vulnerable people toward exploitation. The urgency to act has never been greater. Change is possible. And it must happen now.

To shine a light on this urgent issue, we are proud to present “Caught in the Light” – a groundbreaking human trafficking documentary exploring how financial institutions are fighting this heinous crime. Featuring insights from industry experts, survivors, and advocates, the film highlights the crucial role banks play in detecting and disrupting trafficking operations.

Key voices in the documentary include:

  • Megan Lundstrom, Polaris
  • Nick Lewis OBE, Standard Chartered Banks
  • Chris Bagnall, Quantexa
  • Clark Frogley, Quantexa, Former FBI Official
  • Chris Kemp, Anti-human Trafficking Intelligence Initiative
  • Silvija Krupena, RedCompass Labs
