Overview

Money laundering and the proceeds of crime entering the legitimate financial system is deemed by many to be one of the biggest threats to modern day society.  History has shown how the ability to finance terrorist activities and aid the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction through seemingly legitimate means can lead to civil unrest, continued and prolific crime, considerable financial losses (for both individuals and organisations), weakening of governments and authorities and in many countries, ongoing war.  This might all sound quite severe but it is a very real issue which in one way or another affects all of us.
