Originally
developed to reduce drug trafficking, national and international
efforts to reduce money laundering have broadened over the years to
address other crimes, and most recently, terrorism. These efforts now
constitute a formidable regime applied to financial institutions and
transactions throughout much of the world. Yet few assessments of
either the achievements or consequences of this regime have been made.
Reuter and Truman (1) explore what is know about the scale and
characteristics of money laundering, (2) describe the current
anti–money laundering regime, (3) develop a framework for assessing the
effectiveness of the regime, and (4) use that framework to assess how
well the current system works and make proposals for its improvement.
