money laundering  

Definición

  • Money laundering is the process by which criminal organizations manage substantial and recurring illicit revenues to bring these monies back to the legitimate economy. It is traditionally understood as a three-step cycle: (1) the placement, in which the illicit funds are distanced from the crime that produced them and enter the financial system; (2) the layering, in which the origins of the funds are hidden through generally complex financial transactions; and (3) the reintegration, in which the money comes back to the economy appearing legitimate.
