Financial Crime Weekly Episode 131

Hello, and welcome to episode 131 of the Financial Crime Weekly Podcast, I’m Chris Kirkbride. A relatively quiet week overall, which is a good thing for me. Some sanctions movement in the US and UK, while OTSI issues trade sanctions guidance to firms. On money laundering, the FATF has announced the outcomes of its Paris Plenary, and on bribery, the OECD has updated on Austria and Romania. There is a report from Finance UK on the state of fraud for the first half of 2024, and in other financial crime news, 20 finfluencers have been interviewed under caution by the FCA. There is also a brief round-up of cybercrime news this week.
