    Because they deal with other people's money, financial institutions rely on a reputation for probity and integrity. A financial institution found to have assisted in laundering money will be shunned by legitimate enterprises. An international financial centre that is used for money-laundering can become an ideal financial haven. Developing countries that attract "dirty money" as a short-term engine of growth can find it difficult, as a consequence, to attract the kind of solid long-term foreign direct investment that is based on stable conditions and good governance, and that can help them sustain development and promote long-term growth. Money-laundering can erode a nation's economy by changing the demand for cash, making interest and exchange rates more volatile, and by causing high inflation in countries where criminals are doing…

    Illegal practices happen because of supply and demand hidden by both legal and illegal business transactions such as tax evasion for the illegal trade of goods and service on a local and global level. Money laundering is sought out due to profit margins made when criminals avoid paying taxes on legitimate proceeds from illegal activities. Worldwide, money laundering amounts to around 1 trillion per year associated with drug money, bribery, corruption, extortion, embezzlement, and criminal activity (Adel, et al., 2013). Once the dirty money is obtained, it can be used to create legitimate businesses controlled by criminal organizations to support their illegal activities. In fact, the primary source of income of gangs such as the Latin Kings is obtained through money laundering practices and drug distribution while committing theft and various violent crimes (Alder et al., 2013, p.152).The Gangster Disciples have also committed similar criminal acts, but their violations also include prostitution rings (Alder et al., 2013,…
