Keeping Foreign Corruption Out of the United States:
Four Case Histories
Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations
Thursday, February 4, 2010
09:30 AM
Dirksen Senate Office Building, room 342
The Permanent Subcommittee on
Investigations has scheduled a hearing, "Keeping Foreign
Corruption Out of the United States: Four Case Histories,"
on Thursday, February 4, 2010, at 9:30 a.m., in Room 342 of
the Dirksen Senate Office Building.
The Subcommittee hearing will examine how some
politically powerful foreign officials, their relatives, or
close associates – referred to in international agreements
as “Politically Exposed Persons” or PEPs – have used the
services of U.S. professionals and U.S. financial
institutions to bring millions of dollars in suspect funds
into the United States to advance their interests. Four case
histories will illustrate how some PEPs have used U.S.
lawyers, realtors, escrow agents, lobbyists, bankers, and
others to circumvent U.S. anti-money laundering and anti-corruption
safeguards. It will also look at how some U.S. professionals
have actively helped PEPs avoid bank scrutiny or facilitated
suspect transactions with no questions asked. The hearing
will also examine whether U.S. policies and practices to
combat foreign corruption and money laundering need
strengthening. Witnesses will include government agencies,
including the State Department, Immigration & Customs
Enforcement (ICE), and Financial Crimes Enforcement Network
(FinCEN), as well as lawyers, a realtor, and representatives
of financial institutions.
A witness list will be available Tuesday, February 2,
2010.
