RedFlag Accelerator

The RedFlag Accelerator is the gold standard for crime detection within financial data.

We provide investigation tools, algorithms and analytics that identify crimes ranging from labor and sex trafficking to elderly abuse, drug trafficking, and the latest fraud and scams.

Hero background

Financial crime detection is broken

$3.1 trillion in illegal transactions were made in 2023. More than $800 billion was connected to drug trafficking, $350 billion to human trafficking, and $11.5 billion to terrorism. Another $500 billion was lost to fraud.  

1% of these crimes are brought to justice.

That feels like an error of focus. Not an error of ability.

$350 billion

More than a third of a trillion dollars is generated each year by human trafficking.

50 million

There are more than 50 million people trapped in modern slavery.

1%

Only 1% of financial crimes are brought to justice.

Research report

Banks think they are 8 months behind criminals

New research by the RedFlag Accelerator reveals banks think they are 8 months behind criminals.

That’s according to 300 anti-fraud and AML professionals at US banks.

Some of the largest institutions believe the gap could be as wide as 23 months.

However, they’re confident they can catch up.

23 months

Most banks think criminals are around 8 months ahead of the banks, with the largest institutions believing the gap is as wide as 23 months.

27%

Over a quarter of banks blame internal governance as the main reason banks are so far behind.

57%

More than half of banks believe AI will make it more difficult to detect financial crimes.
