Taskforce on Public-Private Partnership in Fighting Financial Crime in Ukraine
Providing expert advice on enhancing cooperation between the public and private sectors in addressing financial crime in Ukraine.
The Taskforce on Public-Private Partnership in Fighting Financial Crime in Ukraine (PPP UA) fosters dialogue and provides expert advice on enhancing cooperation between the public and private sectors in addressing financial crime.
The evolving financial landscape, increased risks of cross-border financial crime, and rising challenges such as cyber fraud and money laundering have accelerated the demand for coordinated efforts across public and private sectors in Ukraine. Against this backdrop, the Center for Financial Integrity (CFI) in Ukraine and Centre for Finance and Security (CFS) at RUSI have initiated this Taskforce to advance PPP working as a vital component in the fight against financial crime.
The work of this Taskforce aligns with Ukraine’s ongoing reforms and EU integration aspirations. Through a series of in-person and virtual events, the Taskforce engages Ukrainian and international stakeholders to identify key challenges, share international best practices, and craft tailored solutions that strengthen Ukraine’s response against financial crime.
Aims and objectives
The Taskforce will support public-private partnership action to fight financial crime in Ukraine through three key approaches:
- Advisory Role: to act as a discussion forum that advises on developing PPP strategies in Ukraine.
 - Knowledge Sharing: to facilitate the exchange of ideas and best practices among key stakeholders from various sectors.
 - Capacity Building: to enhance the understanding and capabilities of both public and private sector entities in combating financial crime.
