Financial Crime Weekly Episode 94

Hello, and welcome to episode 94 of the Financial Crime Weekly Podcast, I’m Chris Kirkbride. It is yet another busy week for financial crime. A range of stories across the whole of financial crime, with sanctions, money laundering, bribery, and cyber-attack news. In sanctions, there is some heavy focus on oil and Iran. In money laundering, a new economic crime agency in the UK focussed on money laundering in the environmental context. On bribery, more allegations of public sector corruption. Lots to get into, so let’s crack on.

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