Hello, and welcome to episode 132 of the Financial Crime Weekly Podcast, I’m Chris Kirkbride. Another relatively quiet week overall, and I can assure you that is not a complaint. On sanctions, licensing changes in the UK, in addition to further designations, the US targets third-countries aiding Russia in its military action in Ukraine, while the UN raises the issue of sanctions-related justice. On bribery and corruption, the National Anti-Corruption Commission will think again about the robodebt references made to it, while on fraud, the SFO has made changes to fraud reporting. This week’s financial crime news ends with a round-up of cybercrime news, where the European Union Agency for Criminal Justice Cooperation has announced major action against malware attackers.
