Shannon K. O'Neil: Latin America's Moment » Blog Archive » Trade-Based Money Laundering in Mexico: "trade-based money laundering is likely where the real money is. Less understood and perhaps more pernicious, this includes the stereotypical restaurant that never seems to serve any customers, except for a few toughs at the back table, but “rakes in” profits.

Any type of trade across borders is a potential opportunity for nefarious transactions, buried among the billions of legal ones."

I monitor and analyze international press on Mexico, with a focus on security, immigration, human rights and social movements for peace and justice, from a feminist perspective. And sometimes I simply muse.
