Show Notes
Seven minutes. Nine pieces of priceless jewellery. A place in heist history.
The theft of the Louvre in Paris has made headlines across the world.
You may think this is a story about priceless items linked to Napoleon – but the truth may be something closer to home for compliance professionals.
Our expert hosts, Marit Rødevand, Fredrik Riiser, and Robin Lycka, are revealing: What the Louvre jewel heist can tell us about money laundering!
The panel discuss: how priceless artefacts have a very real price for financial criminals, the possibility of state sanctioned theft, and how the tools of compliance could help save the day.
