Anyone know of any sources for explanations of Money Laundering (and more appropriately Anti-ML! ) that are a bit more user-friendly than the usual run of stuff?

I've to give a presentation to some lawyers, and whilst it's a dry subject, I need some slant on the material that won't lead me to fall asleep while giving the presentation?

Should not the lawyers be explaining it to you?

I'm attending a lecture on this very subject on 6 November. I'm sure I'll be given numerous handouts on the subject. Is that too late for you?

Eric - thanks for your response! Unfortunately 6th November is a little late!

Yes - it's bizarre that they're seeking their training from outside!

My simple presentation is great:


These geezers commit some crime, see?

They have a wad of money

They're going to use you, whether you like it or not, so that they can get some dosh which looks legit, right?

Your job is to stop them.

Any questions?


But I don't think that'll look like value for money!? And I know the subject OK, it's just not my idea of a fun day out to spout on about it!

I presume this is in connection with the recent Proceeds of Crime Act and Money Laundering Act.

Money laundering is not new. What is new are the reporting requirements of professionals to report to NCIS not only if their clients are engaged in activity that could be construed as money laundering, but even if they have reasons to be SUSPICIOUS that they MIGHT be engaged in such practice.

It is extremely worrying legislation.

It starts out looking quite sensible at first - but it's gone way out of control!
