Episode Five: Political Will

Throughout this reporting project, Jason Leopold and Anthony Cormier wanted to talk to someone who was the subject of a suspicious activity report to ask, “Why did the bank flag you?” Only one person was willing to talk: real estate developer and former associate of President Trump, Felix Sater. And Senator Ron Wyden and a former DOJ prosecutor tell us what they think needs to be done to stem the flow of dirty money in our banking system.

Episode Four: See Something, Say Something

Two former employees of Standard Chartered say they were ignored and eventually fired when they reported accounts at the bank that looked fishy to them – accounts they suspected were violating U.S. sanctions against Iran. But as BuzzFeed News reporter Richard Holmes explains, there was someone else who thought many of the accounts were suspect enough to report to FinCEN: the bank itself.

Love the show but the guitar accents make it sound cheesy.
This podcast isn’t really about banks.

Callie Zowie

It’s about a worldwide system that is so reliant on dark money that it neglects accountability. As far as banks are concerned… there’s a big difference between doing what’s legal/required and doing what’s ethical. Most big banks have been milking the middle class for years on top of questionable business practices. Sorry, but zero sympathy here.
Awesome Show

All Is On PDX

I don’t understand the low stars for this podcast. It is one of the better ones I have listened to. The reporting is well explained and seems to have been verified prior to airing. The narration is excellent and there is nothing annoying or obnoxious or cheesy about anything in this podcast. It explains the horrible corruption that goes on daily with banks and our government on an international level and once again bank executives and various agencies within our government are not held accountable. It is without a doubt very much deserving of five stars.
