Philip Ingram MBE chats with Max Hobbs a Solicitor with Macfarlanes LLP and Racheal Muldoon a Barrister with the 36 Commercial Crime team about money laundering regulations using the Commerzbank London fine as a basis.  This is Part 2 and examines what could be done to protect institutions from falling foul of the regulations.

36 Commercial Crime is a specialist team within 36 Commercial  focusing in White Collar, Fraud, Investigations, financial Crime and more.  

Racheal has a diverse practice encompassing Financial Crime and Regulation, White Collar Crime, Art and Cultural Heritage Law, Civil Forfeiture and Condemnation, Licensing and Regulatory. 

She defends Fraud and POCA matters and also assists the Serious Fraud Office with ongoing high-profile investigations. Racheal has worked directly with the Financial Conduct Authority where she was an Associate within the Criminal Prosecution Team focussing predominately on investigations. 

Max is an associate in the corporate crime and investigations team at Macfarlanes, which is where he trained and qualified. His team advises individuals and corporate clients across the full spectrum of white collar crime, and his particular area of expertise and interest is money laundering; as such advising clients on the quirks of the Proceeds of Crime Act or assisting companies with their anti-money laundering arrangements.

Macfarlanes is a London-based law firm but the majority of its work has an international dimension. Traditionally known for corporate and private client work, in recent years the firm’s litigation team has grown significantly and in late 2018 it established a new corporate crime and investigations team that has been notably active, winning The Legal 500 award for Regulatory Investigations and Corporate Crime – Team of the Year.
