What does financial crime really look like from the law enforcement side?

In this episode, Victoria Frosch Bowes joins us to share a frontline view of modern fraud investigations — from her time as a Detective Constable working complex fraud cases, to her current role in securities enforcement.

We discuss how Victoria found her way into financial crime, what makes fraud cases uniquely challenging for law enforcement, and why collaboration between police, banks, and technology providers often breaks down in practice.

The conversation covers:

• Why financial crime investigations are more complex than many people realize

• Lessons from real-world fraud cases, including SIM-swap enabled schemes

• The practical challenges law enforcement faces when data, timing, or context is missing

• What banks and technology vendors could do differently to support investigations

• How AI, automation, and crypto are changing fraud — for criminals and investigators alike

• Why fraud prevention can’t stop at detection alone

This episode is a must-listen for anyone working in fraud, compliance, payments, or financial crime prevention — especially those building systems meant to support investigations downstream.
