Money Laundering


Money laundering is  the process of illegally concealing the origin of money obtained from illicit activities (usually known as dirty money) such as drug traffickingsex workterrorismcorruption, and embezzlement, and converting the funds into a seemingly legitimate source, usually through a front organization. As financial crime has become more complex and financial intelligence is more prominent in combating international crime and terrorism, money laundering has become a prominent politicaleconomic, and legal debate. Most countries implement some anti-money-laundering measures.
