Big data can reveal an extraordinary amount about us – including whether our spending matches the income we claim to earn. That makes it a powerful tool not just for businesses, but for fighting scams, money laundering and other financial crime.

Sean Aylmer speaks with Professor Andreas Chai, Director of Griffith University’s Academy of Excellence in Financial Crime Investigation and Compliance, about how researchers are using big data and AI to identify suspicious behaviour, the privacy trade-offs involved, and why Australians need to become much more savvy about staying safe online.

Griffith University is a supporter of Fear & Greed.
