Fake cigarettes financing terror | With commonwealth law enforcement, Rohan Pike
How do criminals exploit borders, trade systems, and corruption to move their money?

Since then the conversations about illicit trade, the financial Action Task Force greylisting of South Africa for among others terror funding and funny money has become an almost daily conversation.
Phumi Mashigo speaks to Rohan Pike, a commonwealth law enforcement expert on border controls, foreign bribery, trade crime, money laundering and corruption to compare how South Africa is doing in contrast with other countries faced with similar challenges.
