This White Paper from ACAMS in May says that high-profile “smash-n-grab” robberies, and nationwide cases involving major retailers in Chicago, Los Angeles, and San Francisco have made headlines; and recent hearings by the US Congress, that discuss and debate proposed legislation, target the ability of criminal organisations to resell the stolen goods online with relative anonymity. ORC is a low-risk, high-reward business line for transnational criminal organisations’ portfolios that presents a significant financial and public safety risk. However, criminal organisations need to launder the nearly $70 billion of illicit proceeds gained from ORC activities annually, and financial institutions should ensure proper controls are in place to detect and report illicit activities tied to or involving ORC.
