Corruption and Money Laundering A Symbiotic

This book argues that corruption and money laundering, previously researched in isolation from each other, are closely inter-related. The failure to properly understand the corruption-money laundering nexus inhibits knowledge of each problem, and undermines the success of policy measures to tackle them. Through a policy and legal analysis, the manuscript shows how corruption facilitates money laundering, and vice versa. Furthermore, it demonstrates specifically how the responses developed to combat one type of financial crime can productively be employed in fighting the other.
