Money Laundering Bulletin
Advances on the Russian front
Additional reporting by Keith Nuthall.
The value of crime-tainted money moved
through Russian banks may be falling fast – to RUB200 billion (US$3.3 billion)
in 2015, down from RUB350 billion in 2014, according to the Russian Federal
Financial Monitoring Service (Rosfinmonitoring). But the problem is still
acute, says the state agency, which wants more action by law enforcement.
