Explain the steps of money laundering

What will be an ideal response?


Money is laundered in three steps. Placement involves putting criminal proceeds in the legitimate financial system. Placement can take place in a single action, such as showing the monetary gains as profits, or it may be laundered through repeated transactions to conceal its origins. This second process is called layering. The final step is integration.
This involves assimilating illegally obtained money in the formal economy and giving funds the appearance of legitimacy.
