The Soapbox E02: sanctions, fighting financial crime, and AMLA

Welcome to The Soapbo x, a summer special from The Laundry. The humble soapbox has been used for free speech and the open sharing of views for over a century! We're channeling that spirit and inviting industry experts to share their hot takes on today's most pressing questions. This week: * Do sanctions make a real impact, or do they just help us feel like we're acting? * What motivates you to keep fighting financial crime? * Is AMLA driving real change, or just more paperwork?
