Note on Money Laundering

Money laundering is not an activity far removed from the corporate world; in fact, many organizations are unwittingly drawn into the web of money laundering with often damaging results. This note traces the history of money laundering, explores the different stages in the money laundering process, and investigates the growing phenomenon of cyber-laundering. Its intent is to raise awareness of the phenomenon as it relates to the corporate world and to help inform corporate personnel and business students how it might affect their workplace and their work lives.
