Fine words

Denis O’Connor, a Fellow of both the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England & Wales and the Chartered Institute of Securities and Investment, was a member of the British Bankers’ Association Money Laundering Committee from 2003-10 and a member of the Joint Money Laundering Steering Group’s Board and Editorial Panel between 2010 and 2016. He has been a frequent speaker at industry conferences on financial crime issues, both in the UK and abroad.

“Actions speak louder than words”, as the saying goes. In the fight against financial crime, though, Denis O’Connor finds that for major banks, all too often it’s a case of “inaction speaks louder”.
