Reviews for What Went Wrong With Money Laundering Law?
“What Went Wrong with Money Laundering Law is a timely intervention. The book is a continuation of Alldridge’s sustained concern about the expansion of money laundering regulations … . I very much enjoyed reading this book. It provides an important antidote to the juggernaut of AML.” (Penny Crofts, Current Issues in Criminal Justice, Vol. 28 (2), November, 2017)
