Money Laundering Law and Regulation: A Practical Guide

This new work provides a practical, comprehensive guide to domestic anti-money laundering law and regulation, increasingly seen as key weapons in the fight against serious and organised crime.

The authors explain the genesis of the current regime, placing it in its international and regional context. They go on to provide a detaile chapter-by-chapter analysis of the current law, explaining and analysing key concepts. The authors consider also 'the practice' of those tasked with prosecuting or defending offences.

The narrative is accompanied by carefully selected appendices.
