| Subject: Anarcho-Capitalist Good News: Most major banks still offer complex money laundering services to international players looking for secrecy Wed Mar 03, 2010 8:23 pm | |
| Meanwhile, experts on money laundering from the Senate Permanent Subcommittee On Investigations, U.S. Treasury, Department of Justice, and companies like Walmart and eBay are scheduled to gather at the International Anti-Money Laundering Conference in Miami on March 15.
Conference speaker Robert Mazur, a former federal agent who worked undercover in the dirty money world and was key to the 1987 sting that brought down the Bank of Credit and Commerce International, told PDI he will talk about "the elephant in the room" -- that most major banks still offer complex money laundering services to international players looking for secrecy.
"The truth about money laundering is ugly," Mazur said. "Speaking strictly of drug proceeds earned annually around the globe, less than a fourth of one percent is seized each year. Until we face the fact that what's being done isn't getting things done, we can't begin to address the problem."
