  • Figuring Out Why Money Laundering Wins, with Oliver Bullough
    Mar 20 2026
    In this episode of “Financial Crime Matters,” Kieran talks with Oliver Bullough about his latest book, “Everybody Loves Our Dollars: How Money Laundering Won.” In their discussion, Oliver details how a well-intentioned anti-money laundering effort launched in the United States in 1970 snowballed to become today’s global compliance industry, which spends $200 billion annually even as money laundering and other financial crimes spike. Oliver faults several stakeholders in the current AML status quo, not least global governments’ deputization of the private sector in lieu of adequately funding and empowering law enforcement and the courts to police the global economy. The failure of AML requires a total ‘rethink’ of the war on illicit finance, according to the author of two fundamental books on money laundering, "Moneyland" and "Butler to the World.”

  • Holding Court to Bring Kleptocrats to Account, with Richard Goldstone
    Feb 17 2026
    In this episode of “Financial Crime Matters,” Kieran talks with former South African jurist Richard Goldstone about his current efforts as a board member at Integrity Initiatives International, to help create the International Anti-Corruption Court (IACC). Richard, who served on South Africa’s Constitutional Court and then led several international justice initiatives, discusses the trillion-dollar cost of corruption to many nations’ infrastructure, public health and education, and how it empowers authoritarian oligarchs. Detailing the current draft charter for the Court, Richard makes a compelling case that the IACC could seize stolen assets and hold accountable kleptocrats who currently escape the purview of the International Criminal Court, which focuses on genocide, war crimes and other acts of aggression.

    Dec 15 2025
    In this episode of “Financial Crime Matters,” Kieran talks live from the ACAMS Assembly Canada with Inspector Nick Souccar, who is Officer in Charge of Federal Policing Criminal Operations, Serious and Organized Crime, and the Canadian Integrated Response to Organized Crime for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. Nick and Kieran discuss law enforcement’s efforts to secure Canada’s borders against the importation of ‘traditional’ plant-based drugs like cocaine and the flood of precursor chemicals for producing fentanyl in makeshift labs throughout the country. With 21 fentanyl-related deaths in Canada per day, efforts to fight drug trafficking and manufacturing throughout has required a massive effort, recently energized by Prime Minister Mark Carney’s office of Canada’s Fentanyl Czar Kevin Brosseau and the creation of the Joint Operational Intelligence Cell. In combating dangerous illicit drugs, Nick details some of the ways drug traffickers launder money and the kinds of invaluable information the financial community can provide to law enforcement. With criminal organizations regularly creating new dangerous synthetic drugs, many of them not opioids whose overdoses can be countered by Naloxone, Nick points out the need for information sharing via public and private partnerships.
