For nearly 30 years, Robert Mazur served as a Federal Special Agent for multiple U.S. agencies. But his most perilous work came during the years he spent deep undercover, infiltrating two of Colombia’s most powerful drug cartels - a story so extraordinary it’s been captured in two books and a Hollywood film. His covert operations led him into life-threatening situations, including narrowly escaping a fatal encounter with a hit squad in Panama.
In this episode, Robert takes us inside his experiences investigating the financial operations of some of the world’s most dangerous criminals. He also shares key insights into how financial institutions can be complicit in allowing dirty money to enter the economy and why it’s critical for AML professionals to understand the ever-evolving global landscape of financial crime.
