Financial Crime Weekly Episode 80

Hello, and welcome to episode 80 of the Financial Crime Weekly Podcast, I’m Chris Kirkbride. Sanctions and money laundering news take our focus this week, because there is not a lot of noise from the other typical areas of financial crime. Yes, there is a little on bribery and corruption, but even cyber-attack news is quiet this week. Still, that’s not stopped us before, and it is not about to stop us now.
