Abstract

Focuses on the features of some countries that make them more likely to offer money laundering services, arguing that these tax havens are structurally different from other countries: they lack significant resources for trading internationally, which pushes them to generate income through a lax supervisory regime, yet their smallness makes them less attractive to criminal organisations. Takes a relational approach which focuses on the exchange between the centre and its criminal customers, developing a supply and demand schedule for money laundering regulation and a game structure (with mathematics) for the relationship between Offshore and Criminal. Argues that because of the complex and perverse competitive factors involved, a pure “name and shame” approach by anti‐money laundering policy makers may be counterproductive.
