In this episode of “Financial Crime Matters,” Kieran Beer talks with Hennie Verbeek-Kusters, head of the Netherlands financial intelligence unit (FIU), about her leadership over the FIU since its founding in 2008.
During their discussion, Verbeek-Kusters details how the Dutch FIU has evolved to face the challenge of evermore sophisticated transnational criminal organizations and the professional money launderers they now utilize. Verbeek-Kusters says that the effort to track and seize drug money has taken on a new urgency with the unprecedented rise of violence by organized drug traffickers in the Netherlands in the past few years.
