Money laundering by oligarchs and criminals in the United States typically involves a series of complex steps aimed at disguising the illicit origin of funds. Here's a summary of how it often occurs:

Placement: Illicit funds are introduced into the financial system. This could involve depositing cash into bank accounts, purchasing assets like real estate or luxury goods, or even using shell companies to move money.
Layering: The funds are then layered through a series of transactions to make tracing their origin difficult. This could involve transferring money between multiple accounts, making investments, or engaging in international wire transfers.
Integration: Finally, the laundered funds are integrated back into the economy in a legitimate form. This could involve selling assets purchased with illicit funds, using them to fund legitimate businesses or investments, or simply withdrawing them as clean money.

Throughout this process, money launderers often use various techniques to obscure the source and ownership of funds, including setting up complex corporate structures, using offshore accounts, and exploiting gaps in regulatory oversight. Additionally, they may take advantage of certain industries and sectors that are more susceptible to money laundering, such as real estate, luxury goods, and high-value art. Despite efforts by law enforcement and regulatory agencies to combat money laundering, it remains a significant challenge due to the sophistication and adaptability of those involved.

In this episode we explore how the United States is a top destination for money launderers.
