 AML on the move. Money laundering is more prolific than ever. Legislation and AML initiatives continue to respond. But does it make a difference? The Laundromat is an unfiltered deep dive into the shadowy world of money laundering and its far-reaching consequences. From billion-dollar scandals in global banking to cybercriminal networks exploiting digital loopholes, we expose the intricate methods criminals use to clean dirty money. Each episode unpacks real-life cases—some shocking, some audacious—that reveal the hidden connections between financial crime, corruption, and economic instability. But it’s not just about the criminals; we also examine the regulators, the laws, and the ongoing battle to stay ahead of ever-evolving laundering techniques. This podcast is a must-listen for forensic accountants, AML specialists, cybercrime investigators, and anyone curious about the dark side of global finance. We bring in experts to discuss the red flags, failures in AML enforcement, and how AI and blockchain forensics are changing the game. Why does money laundering persist despite intense scrutiny? What are the biggest risks ahead? And most importantly, how does this impact ordinary people? Join us as we pull back the curtain on a world where trillions move in the shadows—because understanding financial crime is the first step to fighting it.Solid Gold Podcasts and Audiobooks Ciencias Sociales Economía

  • Tick-a-box vs Outcomes - are documented risk assessments necessary?

    Tick-a-box vs Outcomes - are documented risk assessments necessary?
    Jun 23 2025
    Don't give me rules, give outcomes; don't ask for risk assessments.

    This episode explores the effectiveness or otherwise of rules-based legislation versus principles-based legislation intended for anti-money laundering. Will financial institutions find it easier to apply or not?

    A related regulatory requirement is to draft extensive risk assessments. Do we consult them when a risk occurs? Businesses manage their risks anyway - why do they need it to be documented?

    An opinion is given on whether the financial impact of money laundering is ever factored into published economic statistics such as GDP.

    FATF: Fighting Financial Crime or Fueling Illusions?
    May 13 2025
    In this thought-provoking episode, financial integrity expert Dawn Pretorius and Professor Louis de Koker delve into the complex world of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF); its origins, effectiveness, and the unintended consequences of its global standards.

    Established in 1989 by the G7 to combat money laundering and terrorist financing, FATF now influences global financial regulations. But has it lived up to its mission? Dawn and Lois unpack the nuances behind the numbers, the realities of implementation, and the costs — both financial and social.

  • Politics, Rule of Law and Tax

    Politics, Rule of Law and Tax
    Feb 28 2025
    In this episode, we dive into the intricate connections between politics, the rule of law, and global economics—where money laundering plays a central role. From corporate power and tax havens to the unintended consequences of globalization, we explore how illicit financial flows distort economies, deepen inequality, and undermine democracy. With billions of dollars hidden offshore, governments lose vital resources needed for infrastructure, healthcare, and education, widening the wealth gap.

    Is money laundering as serious as climate change? Absolutely. It fuels corruption, strengthens organized crime, and weakens financial systems worldwide. We’ll unpack how compliance efforts often fall short and why financial institutions face an uphill battle against an ever-evolving global network of illicit finance. Join the conversation and challenge the narratives shaping our economic reality. Connect with Dawn on LinkedIn · The Shepherds of Inequality · Beyond Play
