    Politics, Rule of Law and Tax
    2025/02/28
    In this episode, we dive into the intricate connections between politics, the rule of law, and global economics—where money laundering plays a central role. From corporate power and tax havens to the unintended consequences of globalization, we explore how illicit financial flows distort economies, deepen inequality, and undermine democracy. With billions of dollars hidden offshore, governments lose vital resources needed for infrastructure, healthcare, and education, widening the wealth gap.

    Is money laundering as serious as climate change? Absolutely. It fuels corruption, strengthens organized crime, and weakens financial systems worldwide. We’ll unpack how compliance efforts often fall short and why financial institutions face an uphill battle against an ever-evolving global network of illicit finance.

    Episode 1 of The Laundromat dives deep into the world of money laundering, exposing the staggering scale of financial crime across the globe. From major banking scandals like TD Bank’s involvement in laundering fentanyl profits to Mozambique’s $2 billion fraud, we uncover how illicit funds flow through legitimate systems, often with minimal consequences for the perpetrators. Cyber scams, shell companies, and underground banking networks all play a role in this multi-trillion-dollar problem, affecting economies, businesses, and everyday people. With technological advancements, criminals continue to adapt, making it increasingly difficult for authorities to keep up.

    But what about the fight against money laundering? We explore the challenges regulators face, the evolving landscape of financial crime, and the role of AI in detecting fraudulent activity. From cybercriminals exploiting cryptocurrencies to governments struggling to close loopholes, this episode raises critical questions: Why are AML controls failing? What are the biggest red flags investigators look for? And most importantly, what can be done to curb this ever-growing threat? Join us as we peel back the layers of corruption, fraud, and deception shaping the financial underworld. Connect with Dawn on LinkedIn · The Shepherds of Inequality · Beyond Play
