E117: Everything you need to know about financial crime in France

We’re touching The Laundry down in a single country – to understand how it looks at financial crime and the lessons we can take from it.


To start us off: we’re going to the EU’s second largest economy and the inventor of more than 1,000 types of cheese.


Our expert host, Marit Rødevand, is joined by Gabriel Vedrenne, Senior Reporter at ACAMS, to discuss: everything you need to know about financial crime in France.


The pair discuss: why 2012 was such a crucial year for France's approach to financial crime, how its financial regulator thwarted terror attacks at the Olympics, and the regulation coming up which compliance professionals should be taking paying attention to.


Producer: Matthew Dunne-Miles

Editor: Dominic Delargy

Engineer: Nicholas Thon
