Episode notes
Behind Putin’s power is a steady flow of illegal funds. Since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the US and Europe have slapped numerous sanctions on Russian banks, officials, businesses, oligarchs and their families in an effort to flatten the Kremlin’s illicit financial flows. This week, host Elisa welcomes back Brian Egan of Skadden to discuss these crackdown efforts. How do kleptocrats acquire and hide their assets? And have these economic sanctions done enough to handicap Putin's war? Brian Egan is partner at Skadden: https://www.skadden.com/en/Professionals/E/Egan-Brian
