LATVIA CLOSES BALTIC INTERNATIONAL BANK FOR NOT PREVENTING MONEY LAUNDERING
On 22 December, OCCRP reported that Latvia’s financial authorities shuttered one of the oldest banks in the country, the Baltic International Bank, for its lax financial crime controls. The bank intended to accept a financial injection from shareholders who failed to explain the origin of their money. The bank was previously subject to several OCCRP investigations.
