THE BRAND NEW SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER - AN EYE-OPENING AND WILDLY ENTERTAINING NEW ANATOMY OF GLOBAL MONEY LAUNDERING

'Such an important book' FINANCIAL TIMES

'A jaw-dropping exposé . . . Bullough is one of Britain's finest investigative reporters' JOHN SIMPSON, GUARDIAN

'His reporting is second to none . . . The man has balls' SUNDAY TIMES

Without money laundering, Latin American cartels would collapse. So would Russian kleptocrats, Afghan insurgents, American tax dodgers and a menagerie of human (and animal) traffickers.

Governments realise this. The trouble is, they don't really know how the process works. Despite endless laws, raids, fines and taskforces, nothing seems to stop the merry-go-round. So join Oliver Bullough on a voyage of discovery.

On the dark side of the world economy, cash is still king - indeed, crime is arguably the only reason cash still exists. Cryptocurrencies flow through ledgers that would look familiar to a fifteenth-century banker. Vast exchanges of dirty banknotes, designer handbags and baby eels prop up a trade in illegal goods stretching from Miami to Shanghai, via, strangely, north Oxfordshire.

And it all works brilliantly. Better than ever.

It's time that changed.©2026 Oliver Bullough

Reseñas de la crítica

Should be required reading for every politician, regulator and board member with an interest in the financial services industry . . . Such an important book
His reporting is second to none . . . The man has balls
A jaw-dropping exposé . . . Bullough is one of Britain's finest investigative reporters. He is thorough, his sources are impressive, and he has a lovely, easy style which takes us through some of the darkest features of the world's economy. He also has a fine sense of moral purpose . . . He seems to be completely without fear (JOHN SIMPSON)
I've been writing about the global financial system for thirtyyears, but reading this revelatory book by Oliver Bullough, I now realise I barely knew the half of it (SIMON NIXON)
It's not just that Oliver Bullough possesses a kind of x-ray vision, enabling him to perceive all the malignant stuff coursing just beneath the surface of our economic and political systems; he is also a gifted storyteller, who can unpick the most fiendishly complex grift so that it becomes not just explicable but perversely entertaining. Everybody Loves Our Dollars is Bullough at his nimble, companionable, panoramic best, tracing vast amounts of dirty money as it flits around the planet - and in and out of our own pockets (PATRICK RADDEN KEEFE, author of EMPIRE OF PAIN)
One of the very few people who not only understand the convoluted world of money laundering, but are also able to explain it in clear and elegant prose (ANNE APPLEBAUM, author of AUTOCRACY, INC.)
Utterly fascinating - like being given X-ray glasses to see the real world. Oliver Bullough should be a national treasure (MARINA HYDE, host, THE REST IS ENTERTAINMENT)
The truth hurts and this stings. Insightful and accurate (DAVID LEWIS, former executive secretary of the Financial Action Task Force)
Alarming and unsettling . . . Bullough is a star investigative journalist with a long track record in writing about illicit financial flows . . . Rich countries, trying to cut down on illicit flows of finance, have focused their energies on the one thing they can see and control: transfers and transactions inside the official financial system. Bullough comes up with an excellent metaphor for this: the FATF is like a drunk looking for his lost keys under a streetlight, not because that's where he lost them, but because it's the only place where he can see (JOHN LANCHESTER)
A vital must-read book. Bullough's latest exposé rails against the hypocritical box-ticking of a compliance culture that utterly fails to rein in money laundering and targets poorer nations, while allowing financial crime to flourish in London and New York. A call to action against the whitecollar bankers and lawyers who feed off the crimes targeting the world's weakest (CATHERINE BELTON, author of PUTIN'S PEOPLE)
