For a summary see the 5 MS/HT Charts that supplement the report for those will less time to take in all the evidence from the Report. For a 45 page in depth look at the UK MS/HT landscape since 2015 to the present day see the Special Report from Financial Crime News. With poverty, inequality, migration and criminal exploitation of children in county lines increasing, these factors are likely to drive increased MS/HT activity and victims. Tackling MS/HT has been an economic crime priority for much of this period and whilst there have been increases in investigations, prosecutions, convictions and asset recoveries the law enforcement effect isn’t making the gains required or adversely affecting the market dynamics. Estimates for the size and scale of the MS/HT problem in the UK just 8 years ago was clearly significantly underestimated. Whilst the UN targets are not going to be met, in the UK or elsewhere, do we need a reset. By now significant reductions in MS/HT victims was expected but known victim numbers have skyrocketed, and whilst some victims are exiting exploitation more are entering. 8 years in and looking at one of the early leaders, the UK - which passed the landmark 2015 Modern Slavery Act, the progress being made against arguably the most harmful of economic crimes is questionable despite some gains. It’s half time for the 2015 -2030 Eradicating Modern Slavery - Human Trafficking UN Sustainability Goals.
