London is the World's Biggest Hub for "Dirty Money" Laundering | Vantage with Palki Sharma
London is the World's Biggest Hub for "Dirty Money" Laundering | Vantage with Palki Sharma
In a startling revelation, UK's deputy foreign secretary Andrew Mitchell has claimed that nearly 40% of the world's black money is being cleaned by London. The black money in question, according to deputy secretary Mitchell, is stolen from developing countries like Africa. This is often done by corrupt politicians, businessmen and warlords-who then use the stolen money to buy properties in some of London's wealthiest districts. Russians are among the leading buyers of luxury property in London. Since 2017, Russians have bought properties worth $500 million in Westminster alone. While rich Russians have been investing their black money in London for decades, they are not the only ones to use the UK city as their safe haven for laundering. Palki Sharma brings you a detailed report on how black money is often converted into "clean" investments in London.

Palki works for Firstpost, a company owned by Reliance Industries. This is not a company that will talk about REAL problems that exist within the realm they function in. They will always try to show India in bright light and other countries in bad light. Public awareness is zero because Indian media is almost completely privatised and has an agenda. I would not call folks who function in that space as ‘superstars’. We have the most polluted air in the world in India with PM 2.5 more than 100 times the limits of the WHO. A whole generation of children are now growing up with lung problems due to this . We don’t even have a public healthcare system that can handle this. Unemployment is higher than ever and so is religious divide and racism. We need to address these fundamental issues and good journalism would do that before pointing fingers at others. Today’s journalism just destroys public awareness in India.
It has always been. Most of these countries cannot do without dirty money
