ACAMS Omaha Event Focuses on Financial Clues in Human Trafficking Investigations
ACAMS’ Greater Omaha Chapter is holding an in-person event on August 26, 2026 focused on how financial information can help identify and disrupt human trafficking networks.
The session, Following the Money: Human Trafficking, Financial Clues, and the Fight to Protect Victims, is scheduled for 11:00 a.m.–1:30 p.m. Central Time at American National Bank’s Operations Center in Omaha, Nebraska. ACAMS lists the event for one continuing-education credit.
Financial activity as investigative evidence
According to ACAMS, the programme will examine how bank accounts, payment patterns, digital transactions and other financial records can expose exploitation that may otherwise remain hidden. The session is intended to show how transaction activity and financial relationships can help investigators identify victims, traffickers and wider criminal networks.
The speaker is Anna Brewer, an investigator with the Nebraska Attorney General’s Office and a retired FBI Special Agent with more than 25 years of experience investigating crimes against children and human trafficking. Brewer currently serves as lead investigator for the Nebraska Human Trafficking Task Force on behalf of the Attorney General’s Office.
ACAMS says the presentation will draw on real cases and investigative experience to explain how traffickers operate, how victims are controlled and how financial patterns can provide actionable clues. The event is therefore directly relevant to financial-crime teams that support human-trafficking investigations through transaction analysis, account monitoring and financial intelligence.
