Moneyland
The Inside Story of the Crooks and Kleptocrats Who Rule the World
Book • 2018
In 'Moneyland', Oliver Bullough delves into the hidden world of the superrich and the corrupt systems that allow them to accumulate and hide wealth.
The book explores how the invention of offshore finance in the 1960s enabled kleptocrats to steal and launder money on a global scale, undermining the stability of many countries.
It highlights the impact on both poor and rich nations, the role of respectable financial advisors, and the efforts of activists fighting against these corrupt practices.
Bullough also discusses the broader implications for democracy and global inequality.
