Introduction To
Money Laundering
Deterrence
£15.99
Every criminal act anywhere that involves obtaining money illegally produces funds which need to be laundered. The IMF estimates that 2-5% of global GDP ($590bn & $1.5 trillion) is laundered every year
- $590bn is the equivalent of Spain's yearly output. Globally regulations have come in which affect certain businesses especially banks & other financial institutions. These businesses have been required to put in place specific arrangements to prevent & detect money laundering & the criminal activity that underlies it. As money launderers have resorted to more sophisticated ways of disguising the source of their funds so employees have to be ever more aware of what they are dealing with & how to deal with it.* At present books on money laundering deterrence tend to focus on the detailed regulations & therefore do not provide much in the form of practical advice & guidance. The books also tend to look at money laundering regulation from a single perspective
- say that of the UK.* Legislation requires firms to provide all relevant employees with adequate training on that legislation & to recognise & deal appropriately with transactions where money laundering is suspected.* This book will look at a series of types of money laundering explain how they are used & what controls if any could be used by an institution to protect itself.* What should make a banker suspicious how would suspicion appear to a court or regulator & what will the impact be on controls & reputational risk.
