E61: Why the UK should pay attention to the Economic Crime Bill

Let’s face it. When it comes to money laundering – the UK is a serious player!


If money laundering was an olympic sport – research suggests that the UK would be on the podium with a silver medial – only trumped by Team USA!


But now, a group of politicians are looking to fight that reputation with a new bill – currently passing through the Houses of Parliament.


In this week's episode – our host, Marit Rødevand, is joined by Dame Margaret Hodge, Member of Parliament for Barking.


They discuss the Economic Crime Bill, the potential impact on the UK, and how political power can help fight financial crime.


Producer: Matthew Dunne-Miles

Engineers: Dominic Delargy, Nicholas Thon
