STR: Suspicious Transaction Report 10 Years at the Intersection of Finance and Security
Kinga Redlowska and Tom Keatinge reflect on the latest season, the CFS's 10th anniversary and the future of finance and security work.
In this special season-wrap episode of the Suspicious Transaction Report podcast, host Kinga Redlowska, Head of Centre for Finance and Security (CFS) at RUSI Europe, is joined by Director Tom Keatinge to look back on a defining year.
Together, they revisit highlights from the past 21 episodes, exploring major themes that emerged – from sanctions and statecraft to assessing the new Labour government's progress against the illicit finance. They look back on the highlights of the season – memorable episodes, key moments like the FinSec25 conference, and a global journey that took the team from London and Brussels to Romania, Armenia, and beyond. The conversation also looks ahead, as CFS continues to adapt to shifting threats from illicit finance and hostile state actors.
With thoughtful reflection and an eye toward the future, Kinga and Tom wrap up Season 7 by asking: What lies ahead at the intersection of finance and security?
