The dirty money laundry: Stopping economic crime to uphold UK security and values

Please join us for an in-person panel discussion at the Conservative Party Conference in Birmingham on how we can reform economic crime policing. Chaired by Ryan Shorthouse, Director of Bright Blue and hosted jointly with Bright Blue, the APPG on Fair Business Banking, Royal United Services Institute, Spotlight on Corruption and Transparency International UK, speakers include:

  • Bob Wigley - Chair, UK Finance

  • Dr Susan Hawley – Executive Director, Spotlight on Corruption

  • John Penrose MP, Former UK Anti-Corruption Champion

  • Oliver Bullough – Author, Moneyland and Butler to the World

At the session we hope to explore such questions as whether or not Russia's belligerence in Eastern Europe can be tamed by measures to clamp down on the dirty money of oligarchs, why London in particular is a target for criminals wanting to hide their money and whether the Economic Crime (Transparency and Enforcement) Act 2022 does enough to tackle the UK's dirty money problem. The panel session will be held in the secure zone in Executive Room 7 of the ICC Birmingham.
