Financial Crime Weekly Episode 128

Hello, and welcome to episode 128 of the Financial Crime Weekly Podcast, I’m Chris Kirkbride. After a few relatively quiet weeks, we are back up to the lengthy episodes of the podcast. New designations from the US and UK. On money laundering, the IMF reports on its recent Uganda mission. The fraud news comes with reports on the scale of fraudulent insurance claims in the UK, a guilty plea in a fraud case against a former solicitor, and research from the Social Market Foundation on the scale of the global fraud problem. The SEC in the US has been active against market abuse, and the FCA in the UK has charged two individuals with insider dealing offences. There’s more research from the Centre for Cybercrime and Economic Crime on the state of financial crime enforcement collaboration, and there is also a round-up of this week’s cybercrime news.
