Content: That’s a little bit different from the other money laundering crime. For this particular crime, the money has to involve a financial institution, a bank, an investment company, securities. You have to actually take the money and give it to some type of financial institution to be guilty of this type of money laundering offense. And there’s a threshold amount. The amount of the transaction has to be more than $10,000. But like the other money laundering charge, the money, of course, has to come from criminal activity and the person has to know that the money is dirty. Now, there are other types of money laundering charges that kind of fall under these two laws. The first is international money laundering, and that’s basically money laundering that involves the movement of the money from one country to another, some type of international transaction. It can be from the United States to, say, Europe or Asia. Or it can simply involve the United States.
