Abstract: Abstract Money laundering has been a crime in the United States since 1986, making the country one of the first countries to criminalize money laundering conduct. Financial crime has been around since the invention of currency. Stricto sensu, the term “financial crime” refers to any kind of criminal conduct relating to money or to financial services or markets, including any offense involving: fraud or dishonesty, misconduct in, or misuse of information relating to, a financial market, handling the proceeds of crime, or the financing of terrorism.
