Financial crimes represent some of the most complex and sophisticated white collar offenses, often involving international dimensions, multiple jurisdictions, and intricate financial mechanisms. For financial institutions and professionals in the banking and finance sectors, allegations of financial crime can be existential threats—regulatory licenses can be revoked, international correspondent banking relationships terminated, and entire business models destroyed. Even for non-financial businesses, financial crime allegations trigger enhanced regulatory scrutiny, difficulties accessing capital markets, and potential civil liability to customers, investors, and counterparties.
