All the major financial centres have experienced a rise in
anti-money laundering rules and regulations. Initially, anti-money
laundering laws were used as a weapon in the war on drugs, whilst
more recently they have been deployed in the ongoing fight against
terrorism. These developments, the authors reveal, have had serious
consequences for banks and other financial institutions - affecting
not only profit margins but also the way in which business is
conducted. Topical and pertinent issues addressed in this book
include questions such as, has all the recent legislative activity
really put a stop to the problem? Are the international rules being
implemented as carefully as they should? How level is the playing
field in cross border banking? The regimes and implementation of
anti-money laundering laws and regulations of four major, cross
border, financial centres are also examined in depth: Switzerland,
Singapore, the UK, and the USA. Going beyond the purely
descriptive, there are comparative analyses of these countries
against existing international standards - with illuminating
results. This new book is full of original insight and analysis and
will be an invaluable resource for lawyers, both scholarly and
practitioner based, with an interest in economic crime as well as
policymakers and compliance officers within banks and other
financial institutions.
