Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

A Year of Labour: Assessing the UK’s Progress Against Illicit Finance
Q: What recommendations would you make for addressing the challenges in tackling illicit finance?
Recommendations include creating a single joint minister with executive power across relevant departments and establishing a cross-departmental single budget for economic crime response.
A Year of Labour: Assessing the UK’s Progress Against Illicit Finance
Q: Has it lived up to the early promise and commitments it was making on economic crime?
The government found being in power more challenging than being in opposition, but there are signs of promise including the establishment of an anti-corruption champion and a new fraud minister.
Strengthening the Financial Frontline on Russia Trade Sanctions
Q: What sort of trade sanctions are we talking about?
The sanctions include restrictions covering a wide range of sectors, which previously had not received the same level of scrutiny, particularly aimed at preventing the funding and resources of the Russian military.
The Honey Trap: A Tale of Scandi-Banking Noir
Q: Can you explain how the expansion of banks like Swedbank relates to the flow of corrupt money?
The expansion allowed for Russian oligarchs to use banks in the Baltics for laundering money and provided a way for corruption from the East to infiltrate Western finance.
The Honey Trap: A Tale of Scandi-Banking Noir
Q: What drew an investigative journalist like you to the Swedbank story?
I was inspired by the opportunities created after the Panama Papers, which opened a new reality for journalists looking into money flows.
