A vivid tale of globalized money laundering, technical outsourcing from South Asia and the not so ruthless men and women who helped make it happen. A must read for anyone in IT, law enforcement or banking.
For as long as there have been organized religions, arms dealers and drug lords there has been a group of banks to which they have entrusted their profits. During the mid-1980’s, proceeds from the Latin America drug trade and Soviet–Afghan War flowed into these banks at a rate of over four hundred million USD per month and with little global regulation, the families grew in wealth and political power, quickly adding billions in cash and real estate to their already vast portfolios.
By the late 1980’s, these families were faced with a landscape that would change everything. The digital revolution was taking hold and the old ways would no longer keep them in power or safe.
This is the story of how in 1983, the signing of the Unification Agreement for Banking Reconciliation and Security (UARS), brought these elite families together and how each sent their best and brightest to play a critical role in a game of control and manipulation. Together they would build a system that not only thrives amongst FATF and CFATF recommendations, but prospers in today’s globally regulated financial infrastructure.
This work has been published from a recorded audio narrative as told by K. Stern. The Kindle e-book follows the original script format. (less)
