Financial Crime Weekly Episode 120

Hello, and welcome to episode 120 of the Financial Crime Weekly Podcast, I’m Chris Kirkbride. On sanctions this week, there is the typical range of designations and updates across the principal sanctions-imposing bodies. On bribery and corruption, more on the ‘tuna bonds’ case only this time from the US with a conviction in a criminal action. The money laundering news comes in the shape of output from the Counter ISIS Finance Group. On fraud, from the US action against bank fraudsters, and from the EU, action against investment scammers. The National Crime Agency in the UK has announced the outcome of its action against the wife of former Azerbaijan banker, Jahangir Hajiyev, and news of a possible massive cyber breach in the US.

As usual, I have linked the main stories flagged in the podcast in the description. These are:
