#Laundering

Money laundering is the high-society ritual that veils ill-gotten, blood-stained wealth in the garment of legitimate business. On the stage of financial institutions and offshore companies, doubts are washed away and called ‘clean’ profits, donning a mask of purity. To slip through regulatory nets, elaborate document tricks and labyrinthine corporate structures are employed. Participants intoxicate themselves with the illusion of transparency while quietly adding more stains behind the scenes. In the end, the dirt thought washed away only resurfaces in a different place.
