Publisher Description: By the virtue of the ease of formation and absence of ownership disclosure requirements, shell companies generally defined as business entities without active business or significant assets are an attractive vehicle for those seeking to launder money or conduct illicit activity. While business entities generally, and shell companies specifically, have legitimate commercial uses, this lack of transparency in the formation process poses vulnerabilities both domestically and internationally. |
