Description
It’s estimated that the scale of money laundering in the UK exceeds £90 billion per year. Criminal entities profiteer at the expense of their victims. The practice of money laundering attempts to make the proceeds from crime, sometimes exploitative and violent crime, including people trafficking and drug dealing, appear legitimate or ‘clean’.
