The modern face of international money laundering will be analyzed at this month’s OffshoreAlert Bangkok Conference.
Just as the 1MDB debacle, which claimed the licenses of two banks and culminated in multiple prosecutions and sanctions, appeared to be in its rear view, Southeast Asia has had to come to terms with a massive $3 billion money laundering investigation and the crackdown of multiple sophisticated scam operations across the region.
The sophisticated techniques by which proceeds are disguised and moved even through the most tightly-regulated of economies, the multi-jurisdictional crimes which are involved, the emergent risks faced by institutions and individuals alike, and, perhaps most importantly, the trailblazing methods and tools by which practitioners uncover culprits and recover assets will be discussed in a session entitled ‘The Dark Side of the Economy: An Ever-Growing Global Launderette‘.
The session will be presented by Danny Ong and Victoria Ting, both of Setia Law; Jack Mullan, of Mintz Group; John Cusack, of the Global Coalition to Fight Financial Crime, and consultant Joshua Heiliczer.
The OffshoreAlert Bangkok Conference on intelligence, investigations, and recovery will take place at the magnificent Siam Kempinski Hotel Bangkok on February 28-29.
It is an event for all participants in high-value finance who want to minimize risk and maximize opportunity as they traverse an industry that does not forgive mistakes easily.
