## Resource

Well, let's just say that if everything's going great, you don't generally need to spin up an entire law enforcement agency out of thin air. But after years of failing to meaningfully cope with financial crimes, and the subsequent hits to our reputation in the international community that failure brings, the federal government has seen enough. Instead of the RCMP, which has murders and kidnappings and daily small-town policing on its plate as well, the new Financial Crimes Agency will deal solely with the sort of crime that may seem less urgent, but actually funds some of the ugliest crime in the world. How will they do it? How successful will they be? How do you actually go about creating a brand new agency from scratch? Jess Davis, PhD and President at Insight Threat Intelligence, as well as the host of the Secure Line podcast, joins us to discuss financial crime in Canada and if we can make a dent in it.
