Greatest Hits: Is the EU's UBO ruling a gift to criminals?

As a summer treat, we're bringing you some of the *top performing* episodes of The Laundry to date!


The EU's Ultimate Beneficial Ownership ruling made headlines all over Europe. It appeared to be a major win for those who think public UBO registers infringe on the right to privacy – but it also has massive consequences for financial criminals too.


In this episode, originally aired December 2022, your expert host, Marit Rodevand, is joined by Thom Townsend, Executive Director of OpenOwnership, to discuss: Is the EU's UBO ruling a gift to criminals?


The pair break down: the ruling from the Court Justice of the European Union, the right to privacy vs. criminality, and the impact of AML6 to potentially override the ruling.
