2 What the GI is and what we do
TOWARDS INCLUSIVE PARTNERSHIP GLOBAL INITIATIVE AGAINST TRANSNATIONAL ORGANIZED CRIME What the GI is and what we do The Global Initiative against Transnational Organized Crime seeks to improve the evidence basis on contemporary threats; provide a platform to promote debate across sectors, and catalyse innovative approaches that can serve as the building blocks of a global strategy to counter organized crime. We are a Network to Counter Networks.

3 Risk Benefits of addressing Human Trafficking in supply chains Legal
TOWARDS INCLUSIVE PARTNERSHIP Benefits of addressing Human Trafficking in supply chains Understanding, mitigating, and managing the risks HT -> direct impact on business ability to manage their supply chains It also affects how a corporation is perceived Risk Financial Legal Reputational "informal” labour migration: While initiated by the Syrian crisis, more than half of the nearly 1 million people who have entered Europe in the last few years weren't from active crisis zones, but were labour migrants.  Highlights the power of smugglers to amplify and enable the natural desire of people to seek better livelihood opportunities. GI has been monitoring the smuggling markets through tracking leg prices.  We believe that to shift towards a proactive response to criminal markets requires ongoing monitoring capacity.  Funded by the EU, and in partnership with the Institute for Security Studies (a pan-African NGO), in 2016 we will be creating a series of Organised Crime Observatories for Africa.  Welcome collaboration.

7 Understanding the Needs of the Private Sector
TOWARDS INCLUSIVE PARTNERSHIP Understanding the Needs of the Private Sector Industry Best Practices Research and Data International Standards National Legislation Case Studies Mitigating Risk Other Types of technical /guidance material sought: Guidance for regional area(s) where companies operate, including region-specific political dynamics and socio- economic challenges and how to address them. Training materials (e-learning tool, app) to educate employees from relevant departments (marketing, HR, compliance, CR) Guidance on how to avoid purchasing practices that increase the risk of human trafficking and forced labour in the supply chain. RC Very few examples of successful public private sector co-operation – though some private sharing with public (tobacco, pharma, logistics) Private sector complains communication with law enforcement is one way via regulatory reporting, for example 1.5m SARs were submitted in the US in 2009 UK review – fewer than 1% of SARs were actionable Seizures of laundered funds according to Levi & Reuter study 0.2% of total laundered funds FCB Nothing and inter-industry TAPA -global security standards - three times lower theft levels Tech – most successful CSEA approach have been corporate led – reputational / goodwill Sometimes no capability – tech Amber Alerts Co-operation – JMLIT and unofficial logistics
