Penningtvätt

Money laundering (penningtvätt) is making criminal money look legal, often via companies and cash-heavy sectors. It is about hiding where the money comes from so that it can be used without arousing suspicion. Because it enables other crime, it is a central target in the work against organised crime, and banks and certain companies are obliged to be alert to it.
