Nevaru atrast Moneyval ziņojumu par BC (Canada)
"[I]n BC - and honestly that mostly means Vancouver - [money laundering] was just egregious and completely out of control.

1. Lawyers in BC are exempt from reporting suspected money laundering activity - protected by solicitor client privilege. Trust accounts were horrifically abused to move billions into real estate.

2. Gangs literally washed bags of cash at casinos with virtually no oversight.

3. Billions - literally billions - worth of exotic cars were bought with dirty money and exported to China in shipping containers to avoid BC luxury vehicle tax and Chinese car taxes.

When the dust settles on this episode, BC will probably have the reputation of the seediest corner of the developed world wrt money laundering."

"Australia too. Reportedly 70% of Chinese buying property in Sydney and Melbourne pay in cash.

Exempted from our anti money laundering KYC laws are realestate sellers, lawyers, and accountants (setting up corporate structures to circumvent foreign ownership review board scrutiny).

The median house price in Sydney is now greater than $1,000,000 while the average gross wage is $82,000 per annum."

Tas Moneyval ir pieminēts ironiski?
