The majority of us are unaffected by financial crime, at least not directly. Unless we’ve had our bank accounts hacked, or our identity stolen and used for fraud, it’s unlikely that we would’ve suffered at the hands of money launderers and criminals who cheat the financial system. Yet financial crime and money laundering is a significant and pervasive problem with estimates placing it at around 2 -5 % of the Global GDP! Thats anywhere between 800 billion and 2 trillion USD every year in funds that are used to manufacture and distribute drugs, finance terrorism and human trafficking, amongst many other ailments that affect our societies today
