Communist China is an ideological, military, economic, technical, commercial, intelligence, and diplomatic rival of the U.S. and the West. China has a growing exploitative presence in the developing world. While these threats are known, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) working with big business or - CCP Inc’s. - involvement with transnational crime and money laundering is not. Former CIA intelligence officer and Treasury Special Agent John Cassara is the first to examine CCP Inc. from a comprehensive law enforcement perspective.
China - Specified Unlawful Activities: CCP Inc., Transnational Crime and Money Laundering examines 12 categories of CCP Inc. criminal activities, as well as exposing money laundering methodologies with "Chinese characteristics," CCP Inc. mercantilism and corrosive capital, and various pernicious enablers. The author puts it all together and explains the convergence. The totality of CCP Inc.’s transnational criminality and money laundering is truly staggering. It impacts all of us. Combining facts, straight-forward explanations, case studies, as well as the author’s personal experiences, views and commentary, this book is valuable to the public and private sectors, law enforcement, policy makers, the financial intelligence community as well as students and concerned citizens.
As a former Treasury Special Agent, John Cassara has investigated and studied transnational crime and money laundering for over 30 years. Equally at home in back streets or government bureaucracies, he has a unique perspective and offers an insider’s knowledge. He delights in telling it as it is. The author of six books and countless articles on money laundering and threat finance, Cassara continues to surface important issues that deserve our attention.
