  • Black Market Peso Exchange As a Mechanism to Place Substantial Amounts of Currency from U.S
    United States Department of the Treasury Financial Crimes Enforcement Network FinCEN Advisory Subject: This advisory is provided to alert banks and other depository institutions Colombian to a large-scale, complex money laundering system being used extensively by Black Market Colombian drug cartels to launder the proceeds of narcotics sales. This Peso Exchange system is affecting both U.S. financial depository institutions and many U.S. businesses. The information contained in this advisory is intended to help explain how this money laundering system works so that U.S. financial institutions and businesses can take steps to help law enforcement counter it. Overview Date: November Drug sales in the United States are estimated by the Office of National 1997 Drug Control Policy to generate $57.3 billion annually, and most of these transactions are in cash. Through concerted efforts by the Congress and the Executive branch, laws and regulatory actions have made the movement of this cash a significant problem for the drug cartels. America’s banks have effective systems to report large cash transactions and report suspicious or Advisory: unusual activity to appropriate authorities. As a result of these successes, the Issue 9 placement of large amounts of cash into U.S. financial institutions has created vulnerabilities for the drug organizations and cartels. Efforts to avoid report- ing requirements by structuring transactions at levels well below the $10,000 limit or camouflage the proceeds in otherwise legitimate activity are continu- ing. Drug cartels are also being forced to devise creative ways to smuggle the cash out of the country. This advisory discusses a primary money laundering system used by Colombian drug cartels.

  • Forbidden Transactions and Black Markets
    Forbidden Transactions and Black Markets Chenlin Gu,∗ Alvin E. Roth,y and Qingyun Wuzx Abstract Repugnant transactions are sometimes banned, but legal bans sometimes give rise to active black markets that are difficult if not impossible to extinguish. We explore a model in which the probability of extinguishing a black market depends on the extent to which its transactions are regarded as repugnant, as measured by the proportion of the population that disapproves of them, and the intensity of that repugnance, as measured by willingness to punish. Sufficiently repugnant markets can be extinguished with even mild punishments, while others are insuf- ficiently repugnant for this, and become exponentially more difficult to extinguish the larger they become. (JEL D47, K42, P16) Keywords: black market; repugnance; Markov process. 1 Introduction Why are drug dealers plentiful, but hitmen scarce? I.e. why is it relatively easy for a newcomer to the market to buy illegal drugs, but hard to hire a killer? Both of those transactions come with harsh criminal penalties, vigorously enforced: In the U.S., half of Federal prisoners have drug convictions,1 and murder for hire is treated ∗DMA, Ecole Normale Sup´erieure,PSL Research University, Paris 75230, France (email: chen- [email protected]). yDepartment of Economics, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305, United States (email: al- [email protected]). zDepartment of Economics, and Department of Management Science and Engineering, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305, United States (email: [email protected]). xWe thank Itai Ashlagi, Fuhito Kojima, Jean-Christophe Mourrat, Muriel Niederle, Andrei Shleifer, Gavin Wright, Zeyu Zheng and Zhengyuan Zhou for helpful discussions.
