Rahman Ravelli’s Syed Rahman has been featured in a Dark Luxury investigation examining how luxury goods are used in trade-based money laundering.
The article, How Rolexes and handbags became the shadow bank for organised crime, considers how watches, handbags, jewellery and other valuable goods can be used to transfer and clean criminal proceeds outside the traditional financial system.
Syed discusses the scale of trade-based money laundering and explains how luxury goods can effectively operate as a form of shadow banking, providing a portable store of value that can be converted into cash across multiple jurisdictions.
The full article is available from Dark Luxury.
