Ep.79 - Anti Money Laundering Part 1

The nexus between financial crime and insolvency has seen a growing overlap with modern day bankruptcy proceedings. The issues regarding cross border concerns in bankruptcies and connected money laundering issues of economic offenders connected with corporate debtors has been a consistent issue in India and has seen several developments over the past five years in the UK.

In the first of two episodes on this subject, we talk to Dr. Oriana Casasola and Dr. Ilaria Zavoli, University of Leeds, about their recently published report on the intersection of anti-money laundering and insolvency. We then talk to Marcial Boo, CEO of the Insolvency Practitioners Association, and John Cullen, Menezies LLP, to understand the perspectives of both the insolvency practitioner, and the insolvency regulator with regard to recent changes in the UK.
