Some pretty shocking statistics surfaced recently from an enquiry by the UK’s Treasury Committee looking into access to finance. Obtaining data from eight UK banks - the committee found that more than 140,000 accounts held by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) were forcibly closed in the past year.  Following hot on the heels of the Nigel Farage Coutts drama – as well as the country’s recent dip into a recession – these figures raise concerns about how the backbone of the UK economy is being served by the banking industry. So is this a real issue? Or a storm in a teacup? In the latest episode of The Laundry – our expert host, Marit Rødevand, is joined by James Nurse, Managing Director of Fintrail, and Neil Donovan, Senior Associate at Ashurst, The panel discuss: Why thousands of businesses are being de-banked, the legitimacy of compliance concerns raised by banks, and how we make the system better at spotting bad actors and front organisations.

The Wirecard scandal has become the subject of legend in the financial industry. The German payments company, formerly worth tens of billions of euros, collapsed following the exposure of massive accounting fraud and financial misconduct. The fall of Wirecard sent shockwaves across the financial industry as well as right to the very top of politics, but none of it would have been possible without the actions of a whistleblower. To call out financial misconduct and illegal practices takes enormous strength, courage and determination – but what are the costs for the individuals involved and what does this look like in a post-Wirecard world?  In the latest episode of The Laundry – our expert host, Marit Rødevand, is joined by Pav Gill, Founder & CEO of Confide. The pair discuss: Pav's journey from whistleblower to founder, the hidden impact of calling out wrongdoing, and how whistleblowing will look going forward.

Sweden is the global poster-child of the journey to completely digital transactions – with the number of Swedes using cash falling from 39% in 2010 to just 9% in 2020.   But; does a cashless society offer only benefits, or do we need to consider the financial crime risks this creates – as well as those it stops?

The panel discuss: how global wars and cyber-terrorism can leave digital systems vulnerable to disruption, the groups which rely on cash to protect their privacy and health, and whether Sweden will ever go completely cashless.

The UK’s National Fraud Intelligence Bureau has revealed they received more than 8,000 reports of romance fraud in the last full financial year.

Following the invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Russia became the most-sanctioned country in the world – with more than 14,000 sanctions currently in place.  Despite this, the intricate and undisclosed relationships between the Russian nationals and European businesses remain intact and active.
