Fintel Alliance and AUSTRAC subject matter experts completed three intensive ‘days of action’ focused on identifying individuals suspected of purchasing explicit material. 
The analyst group consisted of seven Fintel Alliance bank members and one non-member bank. They were guided by AUSTRAC’s Child Sexual Exploitation Response Team’s (CSERT) subject matter experts and used their combined collection and analytical capabilities to conduct a joint analysis of transactional data that uncovered suspicious payments to vulnerable minors.
