In April 2026, Hungarians go to the polls again. The choice is framed as ‘war and peace' by Viktor Orbán, and ‘corruption and oligarchy' by Péter Magyar. But is Hungary's real problem that its oligarchs are not independent tycoons at all, but extensions of the state itself?In this Visegrad Insight videocast, Wojciech Przybylski speaks with two insiders of Hungary's economic and political transformation: former central banker and regional investment banker András Simor and former economy minister and governor of the National Bank of Hungary Péter Ákos Bod.This podcast joins the series of conversations within the pilot Polish-Hungarian bilateral framework at the Europe Future Format by the Res Publica Foundation.Learn more about this format: https://europefuture.forum/europe-future-forum-polish-hungarian-perspectives/.Explore Europe Future Forum: https://europefuture.forumWatch the full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/r-l242SBIbMListen on Apple Podcast: ⁠⁠⁠https://podcasts.apple.com/pl/podcast/visegrad-insight-podcast/id1515725435Listen on Spotify: ⁠⁠⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/7aA9iqd8rUxFMYMemjikuw?si=68781dd9de824b6b

Nach der Auftaktfolge zum Thema Wohnsitzwechsel nach Spanien, knüpft Teil zwei der Residenten-Miniserie an die zentralen Fragen an, die frisch eingewanderte Residenten im ersten Jahr ihrer Ansässigkeit beschäftigen. In dieser Folge sprechen Thomas Fitzner und David Nadrowski, beide Leiter der Residentenabteilung der PlattesGroup, über die steuerlichen und administrativen Pflichten, die nach dem Umzug nach Mallorca anstehen. Beide beraten seit vielen Jahren internationale Residenten und begleiten sie durch den kompletten Prozess der steuerlichen Ansässigkeit auf den Balearen. Der Fokus dieser Episode liegt auf den wichtigsten Jahreserklärungen in Spanien – von informativen Meldungen wie der Auslandsvermögenserklärung 720 bis hin zu den zentralen Steuererklärungen für Einkommen, Vermögen- und Superreichensteuer. Die Experten erklären, welche Fristen gelten, welche Daten benötigt werden, wie die Nationalbank die Auslandswerte berechnet und weshalb das Selbstveranlagungsprinzip in Spanien besondere Aufmerksamkeit verlangt. Zudem geben Thomas Fitzner und David Nadrowski einen Einblick in typische Stolperfallen: verspätete Erklärungen, fehlende Daten aus dem Ausland, Herausforderungen bei Wertpapierdepots oder unerwartete Hinweise des Finanzamts durch den internationalen Datenaustausch. Die Folge zeigt, wie sich Risiken minimieren lassen und warum eine frühzeitige Abstimmung zwischen spanischem und deutschem Steuerberater entscheidend ist.

In dieser Podcastfolge mit Timothea Imionidou und Claudia Schittelkopp geht es um drei zentrale Themen, die Unternehmen, Unternehmer und internationale Privatinvestoren auf Mallorca betreffen: die EU-Lohntransparenzrichtlinie, die spanische ETE-Erklärung sowie den neuen WhatsApp-Kanal der PlattesGroup. Die EU-Lohntransparenzrichtlinie verpflichtet Unternehmen ab 2026 zu deutlich mehr Offenheit in ihren Vergütungsstrukturen. Dazu gehören verpflichtende Gehaltsspannen in Stellenanzeigen und das Verbot von Fragen zum vorherigen Gehalt und das Auskunftsrecht über Durchschnittsgehälter vergleichbarer Positionen. Unternehmen müssen Vergütungssysteme prüfen und je nach Betriebsgröße umfassende Berichte erstellen. Ein weiteres Thema ist die ETE-Erklärung: eine statistische Meldung an die spanische Nationalbank für Auslandsbewegungen und -salden von mehr als einer Million Euro. Sie hat keine steuerliche Wirkung, ist aber verpflichtend und muss bereits im Januar abgegeben werden. Besonders relevant ist sie für vermögende Privatpersonen und Unternehmen mit internationalen Vermögensstrukturen. Zum Abschluss: Die PlattesGroup hat einen neuen eigenen WhatsApp-Kanal, mit wöchentlichen Updates zu Wirtschaft, Steuern, Recht, Podcasts und Analysen – werbefrei und direkt aufs Smartphone. Zur Anmeldung: link.plattes.net/whatsapp

We sat with Jessica Elie to discuss the concepts of equal vs. fair when doing your estate planning. Often, the way we divide up our assets for our beneficiaries may be equal, but not fair due to different family & economic structures or situations of the beneficiaries. Many families have children that are probably more successful than other children in the same family. Punishing those successful kids for their success (by limiting how much or what they inherit) may be problematic when it comes to inheriting assets. Tune in to listen how Jessica Elie suggests you approach this very common scenario with compassion, care, & fairness. *****National Bank Financial - Wealth Management (NBFWM) is a division of National Bank Financial Inc.

fWotD Episode 3085: Jozo Tomasevich Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Wednesday, 15 October 2025, is Jozo Tomasevich.Josip "Jozo" Tomasevich (1908 – October 15, 1994; Serbo-Croatian: Josip Tomašević) was an American economist and historian whose speciality was the economic and social history of Yugoslavia. Tomasevich was born in the Kingdom of Dalmatia, then part of Austria-Hungary, and after completing high school and attending a commercial academy, he earned a doctorate in economics from the University of Basel in Switzerland. In the mid-1930s, he worked at the National Bank of Yugoslavia in Belgrade and published three well-received books on Yugoslavia's national debt, fiscal policy, and money and credit respectively.In 1938, he moved to the United States as the recipient of a two-year Rockefeller fellowship and conducted research at Harvard University before joining the academic staff of Stanford University. During World War II, Tomasevich worked for the Board of Economic Warfare and the United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration, and post-war he joined the Federal Reserve Bank in San Francisco. In 1948, he joined the staff at San Francisco State College (later San Francisco State University). He combined research and teaching there for twenty-five years until his retirement in 1973, which was broken by a year of teaching at Columbia University in 1954. Between 1943 and 1955, Tomasevich published two positively reviewed books on economic matters; one focused on marine resources and the other on the peasant economy of Yugoslavia.Tomasevich then embarked on an extensive research and writing project on Yugoslavia in World War II – War and Revolution in Yugoslavia 1941–1945 – which was planned to consist of three volumes. Supported by grants and fellowships, he published the first volume titled The Chetniks in 1975, which explored the development and fate of the Chetnik movement during the war. The book was well received, and twenty-five years later was described by the Yugoslav and Croatian historian Ivo Goldstein as still the "most complete and best book about the Chetniks to be published either abroad or in former Yugoslavia". After his retirement he was appointed professor emeritus of economics at San Francisco State University, and he died in California in 1994.His final book was the second volume of the series – War and Revolution in Yugoslavia 1941–1945: Occupation and Collaboration – which was edited by his daughter Neda Tomasevich then published posthumously in 2001. It focused on collaboration and the quisling governments in Yugoslavia during the war with a strong emphasis on the Independent State of Croatia, an Axis puppet state. The book was highly praised by historians. The third volume on the Yugoslav Partisans remains unpublished despite being 75 per cent complete at his death. The scholarly standard Tomasevich achieved with the first two volumes in the series made his death before completing the series "a tragedy keenly felt even by those who never knew him", according to Klaus Schmider, a Royal Military Academy Sandhurst lecturer and German historian. In his obituary by Alexander Vucinich in the Slavic Review, Tomasevich was described as "a master of scholarly skills, a person of bountiful erudition, wit and human dignity".This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:48 UTC on Wednesday, 15 October 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Jozo Tomasevich on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Aditi.

As our regular podcast listeners know, we ordinarily release a new regular podcast show once each week on Thursday. On a very few occasions, we have released a special extra podcast show during the same week. We have only done that when a development occurs which we feel is of extraordinary importance and time sensitive. On September 22, the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit issued its unanimous opinion in Conti v. Citizens Bank, N.A. in which it held, in the context of a motion to dismiss a putative class action alleging that the Bank failed to pay interest on mortgage escrow accounts in violation of a Rhode Island statute which requires the payment of interest on mortgage escrow accounts, that the National Bank Act does not preempt the Rhode Island statute. The Bank had argued that the National Bank Act preempts the Rhode Island statute and that, as such, it was not required to pay any interest on mortgage escrow accounts. The District Court had also held that such Rhode Island statute was preempted. See our recently published blog about The First Circuit Opinion in Conti.  While the Conti case involves the narrow question described above, the implications of the opinion are sweeping in nature and will require national banks to comply with a vast litany of state consumer protection laws throughout the country which may no longer be preempted by the National Bank Act. Since 2004, the OCC has had a regulation which expressly purports to preempt state statutes, like the Rhode Island statute, which requires the payment of interest on mortgage escrow accounts That same regulation purports to preempt most categories of other state consumer protection laws. Most national banks have been reasonably relying on the OCC preemption regulations and have not complied with most state consumer protection laws. The Conti opinion implicitly concludes that the OCC preemption regulations are invalid.   During our podcast show, we explain the history of the Conti case and the holding and reasoning of the First Circuit. We also discuss the Cantero opinion in the Supreme Court which led to the First Circuit opinion and similar cases in the Second and Ninth Circuits dealing with the same preemption issues. Most importantly, we will explain how we are helping national banks comply with state laws that are probably not preempted by the National Bank Act. Alan Kaplinsky, the founder and practice leader of the Consumer Financial Services Group, hosted the webinar. He was joined by Joseph Schuster and Ron Vaske, partners in the Group who focus their practices in part on National Bank Act Preemption.

Die Schweizerische Nationalbank SNB verändert ihren Kurs nicht und belässt den Leitzins bei null Prozent. Geld kann also weiterhin günstig geliehen werden. Das soll Investitionen fördern und die Wirtschaft ankurbeln.

Der frühere Schwächling gehört heute zu den stärksten Währungen der Welt. Schmerzlos verläuft der Aufstieg des Frankens aber nicht: In den 1930er Jahren leidet die Bevölkerung, weil die Nationalbank nicht abwertet und auch um den Franken zu stützen, kauft die SNB Gold von den Nationalsozialisten. Nachdem ersten Weltkrieg will die Schweiz den Franken unbedingt wieder ans Gold koppeln. Weil andere Länder dies nicht wollen oder können, beginnt der relative Wert des Frankens zu steigen. Mit kurzen Unterbrüchen setzt sich dieses Erstarken durch das gesamte 20. Jahrhundert fort – trotz oder gerade wegen der grossen Kriege und der Tatsache, dass die Schweiz bei der Neuordnung der globalen Finanzpolitik im US-amerikanischen Bretton Woods nicht dabei ist. ___________________ In der Episode zu hören: • Ernst Baltensperger, Emeritierter Volkswirtschaftsprofessor und Autor von «Der Schweizer Franken – Eine Erfolgsgeschichte» • Martin Schlegel, Präsident der Schweizerischen Nationalbank, SNB ___________________ Hier lernt ihr die Geschichte so richtig kennen – mit all ihren Eigenarten, Erfolgen, Fails, Persönlichkeiten und Dramen.

Künftige AHV-Renten mit höheren Kapitalmarkt-Renditen zahlen: Diese Idee lanciert hat das Beratungsunternehmen «Deloitte» vor wenigen Tagen. Dafür sollen die Mittel im AHV-Fonds von heute rund 50 Milliarden Franken auf 100 Milliarden Franken erhöht werden. Davon erhofft sich das Beratungsunternehmen eine höhere Anlagerendite, sprich: mehr Geld für die Auszahlungen des AHV-Fonds an Rentenbezügerinnen und -bezüger.

Der amerikanische Präsident Donald Trump nutzt in seiner zweiten Amtszeit das gesamte rechtspopulistische Arsenal, um die liberale Demokratie und Kultur zu schwächen. Er setzt die Nationalgarde in demokratisch regierten Städten ein, versucht die Nationalbank unter seine Kontrolle zu bringen und reformiert das Wahlrecht zu seinen Gunsten. Tech-Milliardäre, Medien, Universitäten und Kultureinrichtungen haben seinem Druck bereits nachgegeben. Lediglich einige Gerichte halten Trumps Zoll- und Migrationspolitik in Zaum. Wo bleibt der Widerstand der Demokraten? Wie beschädigt ist die amerikanische Demokratie?

We could soon have a new loonie that can't get lost in the couch cushions.  If you've been hoarding a brilliant idea for a new sports league, now's the time to pitch it. 

Die Karriere des Frankens beginnt mit einem Fehlstart. Weil er nur in Silber geprägt wird und der Silberpreis in den 1850er Jahren massiv ansteigt, wird der Franken anfangs kaum als Währung benutzt. Und auch bei den Banknoten herrscht Chaos, bis 1907 die Nationalbank gegründet wird. Der Schweizer Franken ist bis zum Ersten Weltkrieg ein schwächelndes Anhängsel des französischen Francs. Der Bund prägt anfangs bewusst nicht genug Münzen, um den eigenen Bedarf zu decken, sondern verlässt sich darauf, dass auch ausländische Münzen fürs Zahlen in der Schweiz eingesetzt werden. Diesem "Münzparasitismus" setzt die sogenannte Lateinische Münzunion in den 1860er Jahren engere Grenzen. Gegen Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts werden Banknoten wichtiger. Anders als bei den Münzen herrscht hier immer noch der Föderalismus. Banknoten sind Sache der Kantone. Rund fünfzig Banken drucken eigene Schweizer Frankennoten. Mit dem neuen Bankengesetz reisst der Bund das Monopol an sich - und brummt den Banken im historischen Vergleich sehr hohe Eigenkapitalpolster auf. Uneinigkeit unter den Kantonen führt aber dazu, dass die Schweiz erst ab 1907 eine Zentralbank hat, die Schweizerische Nationalbank. _____________________ In der Episode zu hören: • Ernst Baltensperger, Emeritierter Volkswirtschaftsprofessor und Autor von «Der Schweizer Franken – Eine Erfolgsgeschichte» • Michael Kasch, Chef von Orell Füssli Sicherheitsdruck _____________________ Hier lernt ihr die Geschichte so richtig kennen – mit all ihren Eigenarten, Erfolgen, Fails, Persönlichkeiten und Dramen.

Nach dem Ja der Schweizer Stimmbevölkerung zur 13. AHV-Rente vom März 2024 geht es nun um die Finanzierung. Der Ständerat hat im Juni einem Mitte-Links-Kompromiss zugestimmt. Folgt nun auch der Nationalrat? | Es geht um viel bei der Finanzierung der 13. AHV-Rente: Die Lohnabzüge sollen um insgesamt 0.8 Prozentpunkte steigen; ebenfalls soll die Mehrwertsteuer erhöht werden von heute 8.1 Prozent auf 9.1 Prozent. Gleich mitfinanziert wäre damit ein weiterer Ausbau der AHV, nämlich die Erhöhung der Ehepaar-Renten. Eine solche Erhöhung fordert die Mitte-Partei mit ihrer Volksinitiative «Ja zu fairen AHV-Renten auch für Ehepaare». | Kostenpunkt der Finanzierungsvorlage gemäss neuesten Schätzungen des Bundesamts für Sozialversicherungen: Mehr als 5 Milliarden Franken im Jahr 2030.

Diese Sendung wurde erstmals veröffentlicht am 1. Mai 2025. | Donald Trump will Frieden in der Ukraine. Dafür will er Russland weit entgegenkommen. Was bedeutet das für die ukrainische Bevölkerung? | Luzia Tschirky war Russland-Korrespondentin beim Schweizer Radio und Fernsehen. In dieser Rolle berichtete sie am 24. Februar 2022 als eine der ersten direkt aus Kiew vom Kriegsausbruch. Einer breiteren Öffentlichkeit bekannt wurde Tschirky mit ihre Liveschaltung vom Strassenrand einer Kiewer Ausfallstraße, eingepackt in eine splittersichere Schutzweste.

An der Medienkonferenz der Schweizerischen Nationalbank vom Juni hatte SNB-Präsident Martin Schlegel nur eine Nachricht für die Öffentlichkeit: «Null ist nicht negativ». Das, nachdem die Nationalbank die Zinsen erstmals seit 2022 wieder auf null Prozent gesenkt hatte. Adriel Jost, Fellow am Institut für Schweizer Wirtschaftspolitik an der Universität Luzern, findet nun: Nullzinsen gibt es gar nicht. Das darum, weil bereits heute wichtige Schweizer Zinssätze negativ sind. Wie kann das sein? Weshalb bezeichnet SNB-Präsident Martin Schlegel seine Politik trotzdem als Nullzins-Politik?

Am Donnerstag hat die Nationalbank den Leitzins um 0.25 Prozentpunkte gesenkt auf 0. Reicht das, um die Inflation wieder auf Kurs zu bringen? Oder sind Negativzinsen unausweichlich? Und manipuliert die Schweiz ihre Währung? Kritische Fragen an Nationalbank-Präsident, Martin Schlegel. Für einmal hat die Nationalbank die meisten Beobachterinnen und Beobachter nicht überrascht. Sie begründet die Senkung des Leitzinses auf 0 vor allem mit der Inflation, die aktuell bereits leicht unter Null liegt. Aber reicht dieser weitere Lockerungsschritt wirklich, um die Inflation wieder dahin zu bringen, wo sie gemäss Mandat sein sollte? Bleiben der Nationalbank überhaupt noch andere Mittel, als den Zins bald ins Negative zu drücken? Faktisch sind die Zinsen in gewissen Bereichen bereits ins Negative gekippt. Riskiert die Nationalbank damit, dass die Immobilienblase entsteht, vor der sie seit Jahren warnt? Welche Mittel hat sie überhaupt noch, um gegen ein weiteres Erstarken des Schweizer Frankens vorzugehen, jetzt wo die US-Regierung sie der Währungsmanipulation bezichtigt? Und, was meint der Währungshüter zur Kritik der letzten Schweizer Grossbank an den neuen Bankenregeln, die der Bundesrat vorschlägt? Martin Schlegel ist seit acht Monaten Präsident der Schweizerischen Nationalbank und seit dem ersten Tag stark gefordert. Wie geht er mit der Herausforderung um und was macht er anders als sein Vorgänger Thomas Jordan? Der Präsident der Schweizerischen Nationalbank, Martin Schlegel, nimmt Stellung in der «Samstagsrundschau» bei Klaus Ammann. Ergänzend zum «Tagesgespräch» finden Sie jeden Samstag in unserem Kanal die aktuelle «Samstagsrundschau».

In 1794, John Taylor of Caroline launched a direct assault on Alexander Hamilton's entire financial regime - the national bank, the debt, the funding system, the whole machine. He called it a “political papacy,” a new aristocracy built on paper money, perpetual debt, and lawless power. On this episode, learn about Taylor's forgotten takedown of the system that laid the foundation for the largest government in history. The post BLASTING Hamilton's National Bank: John Taylor's Forgotten Takedown first appeared on Tenth Amendment Center.

This week we talk about smishing, Huione, and scams.We also discuss money laundering, the Cambodian government, and Tether.Recommended Book: The Longevity Imperative by Andrew J. ScottTranscriptThe portmanteau ‘smishing' combines SMS and phishing to refer to the practice of using text messages to trick the recipients of said messages into revealing information that allows scammers to access their victim's accounts on various platforms.One common variation of smishing, which I've seen a lot recently, personally, are messages purportedly from toll road operators that tell the recipient they've got an unpaid toll, and they need to follow a link that's provided in order to pay it. If the person receiving that message follows the instructions, they'll tend to land on a webpage that's convincing enough, which looks like the sort of site you might go to if you're paying that kind of toll, online, and you enter your payment information and are then either immediately charged for this fake toll, or that information is used in some more cohesive manner—maybe the card is stolen, maybe it's added to a larger collection of data they have on you which is then leveraged for a larger payout.This type of scam has become more common in recent years because of innovations deployed by what security researchers have called the Smishing Triad, which is a trio of mobile phishing groups operating out of China that seem to have refined their infrastructure and techniques so that messages they send via iMessage to iPhone users and RCS to Android users can bypass mobile phone networks and enjoy a nearly 100% delivery rate—which makes the name a little ironic, since these groups don't use SMS to deliver these scam texts anymore, as those other methods of delivery are more reliable for such messages, these days.The big innovation introduced by these groups, though, beyond that deliverability, is the productization of mobile phishing, which basically means they've packaged up applications that allow their customers, which are usually smaller-time phishing groups and individuals, to share links to convincing-looking copies of Paypal, Mastercard, Stripe, and CitiGroup payment sites, among others, including individual banks, and that makes knee-jerk payments from the victims receiving these texts more likely, and less likely to set of alarm bells in the minds those receiving them, because they look like just normal payment sites.These pre-packaged scam assets also include regularly rotated web domains, which makes them less likely to trigger the recipient's anti-scam software—their browser will be less likely to flag them as problematic, basically. And the Triad has hundreds of actual humans working desk jobs, worldwide, supporting their customer base, which again is a bunch of scammers that use this package of tools to try to steal money from their marks.All of this is enabled, in part, by clever emulation software that allows Triad customers to leverage legit and legit-seeming phone numbers from a computer or phone, those devices then sending out around 100 messages per second, per device, to phone numbers in the targeted region. They're able to do this on a budget because of the efficiency of the software acquired from the Smishing Triad, and the Triad stays just ahead of regulators and law enforcement by rapidly iterating their offerings, which in turn does the same for all of their customers—which grants the benefits of a larger institution to all these individual and smaller scam groups.What I'd like to talk about today is another alleged backend for scammers, this one this more overt and public facing, and perhaps even more impactful because of its size and because of the nature of its offerings.—The Huione (hu-WAY-wahn) Group is a financial conglomerate primarily based in Cambodia, though it also has satellite offices in other countries, mostly in Southeast Asia.Folks use the entity's QR codes to pay for stuff all around Cambodia, from restaurant tabs to hotel bills to supermarket tallies, and it offers normal banking stuff like checking and savings accounts, alongside things like escrow services and a cryptocurrency exchange.This is a company that buys billboards along major highways throughout the country and which has well-connected people in charge, including one of the Cambodian prime minister's cousins, who is the director of a Huione company.In addition to its many legitimate offerings, though, Huione has also been accused to providing a range of gray and blackmarket products and services to folks who are doing skeevy but partially legal things, alongside wholly criminal enterprises, like a human trafficking outfit in Myanmar and folks running large smishing schemes in other parts of Southeast Asia.Huione's primary offering for the criminal underworld though, is allegedly serving as a money laundering go-between.If you run a smishing scammer network, or a group that kidnaps people and sell them into various types of modern slavery in Myanmar, you may have trouble using the money you earn for these efforts because they're off-book, blackmarket sorts of income. You need to clean, to launder that money to make it seem legitimate, so that you can put it in banks or otherwise use it to pay for things like you would with normal, non-illegally earned money.Money laundering matchmaker services maintain networks of what are called money mules, and these mules are sometimes individuals, and they're sometimes shell companies with bank accounts or their own cryptocurrency wallets.If you're scamming people out of their money, you might use this type of service to connect you with a money mule, and you provide that mule's bank or crypto account information to your victim—so when you receive a scammy text message and follow it to completing, the bank your money is sent to will probably be that of a mule, not the person or group doing the scamming.So the victim transfers their money to that mule's account, and the mule then moves said money from one account to another to another to another to another, eventually converting it into an asset like a cryptocurrency, once the path has been suitably muddled. They take their cut, which is often something like 15%, somewhere along the way, and you, their customer, the scammer, are handed neutralized, clean resources in the form of that cryptocurrency—which you can then convert into real money at some point—on the other end.An entity like Huione makes money by connecting scammers and other criminals with mules, but also by serving as a guarantor on these transactions.So this entity allegedly, via a network of Telegram channels it maintains, telegram being an anonymizing chat app similar to WhatsApp, it allows matchmakers to advertise on these channels, using thinly veiled language to promote their services, and Huione is able to make money selling ads to mules and other matchmakers who want to promote via these highly trafficked channels, one of which has more than 400,000 users—and they have many of these things, and that alone apparently brings in a fair bit of revenue, serving as a sort of hard-to-track Craigslist for this component of the scam economy.The guarantor component of this digital bazaar means that Huione holds the transactions between scammer and mules in escrow, just like any other escrow service: they take the money and hold it until the service has been completed, at which point they release it, taking a small cut for the service of ensuring that no one gets ripped off—except for the original victim of the scam, of course.The majority of these transactions are completed using Tether, which is a stablecoin that tries to peg its value to the US dollar, each token worth exactly one USD, rather than fluctuating like speculative crypto assets, like Bitcoin, and this allows everyone involved to maintain a veil of both feigned ignorance and anonymity, making it difficult to track who does what, how much money changes hands, and who gets paid and does the paying.This setup allows Huione to claim ignorance any time someone accuses them of doing illegal stuff: after all, they can't possibly be responsible for what all the entities using their services are up to, right? All everything is just muddled and anonymized enough to grant seeming truthfulness to that claim of ignorance.Because of how all this is set up, most of what we know about this is the result of whistleblowing from insiders and leaked documents, alongside divulgences from security researchers who know how to get into these sorts of networks and who at times hack those involved in various ways.And it seems, based on those divulgences and other gleaned knowledge, that Huione's money laundering services, alone, have been linked to nearly $27 billion in cryptocurrency transactions since 2021—though that could be a significant undercount because of the blurry nature of this industry and the entities involved with it.Thus far, Huione has never been targeted for sanctions by any government.Tether took action to freeze some of its accounts after law enforcement officials flagged them for criminal behavior, and Telegram has closed some of those illicit, matchmaking channels, but it's easy enough to set up new versions of both, while the escrow subsidiary of Huione, previously called Huione Guarantee, denies any connection to these activities and even changed its name to Haowang Guarantee in October of 2024, though that denial seems to be public-facing only: the escrow-providing company continues to claim that the larger Huione Group is one of its strategic partners and shareholders.Huione also has its own matchmatching service, called Huione International Pay, which operates as a real-deal bank, but also does what all the other matchmakers do—it helps criminal enterprises shuffle their money around, taking a fee to provide them with clean money, usually in the shape of Tether crypto tokens, on the other end.Though notably, Huione also recently launched their own stablecoin called USDH, alongside an in-house communication service called ChatMe and an array of mini-games that seem optimized for automation, which is another means of laundering money via what seems like gambling apps, allowing their clients to cut out the casinos that are sometimes used as part of the laundering process. All of which seems primed to internalize more of this process, slowly doing away with the need for Telegram and Tether and those casinos, which would seem to remove some of the risk associated with those external, uncontrolled-by-Huione, platforms.Despite all this, this enterprise has been allowed to flourish and grow like it has, according to a threat analyst with the UN, at least, because of lax enforcement in Cambodia, and the conglomerate's connections with the government and ability to say, basically, we're legit, look, we're just a bank, we can't control what other people might do with our services. Their whole setup is obscure enough, too, that anyone who takes a close look at their entangled business structure quickly gets lost in its complexity and many tangles and dead-ends.Some governments, including the Chinese government, have been cracking down on entities like Huione operating within their borders, but many such crackdowns are hobbled when they're aimed at operations based in different countries, especially those with lax enforcement, like Cambodia.Also worth noting is that if someone's going to get caught, it'll most likely be the mules, not the matchmakers or scammers, and that's by design. It's a bit like street-level drug dealers being more likely to be picked up by police than the folks running the larger drug enterprise of which they're a part. Huione and other entities like it are largely insulated from major consequences, even if the mules who use their services periodically get caught in dragnets cast by law enforcement.That said, the National Bank of Cambodia recently announced that it hasn't renewed Huione's license to operate its payment service in the country, the one that runs all those QR codes, because it didn't meet renewal requirements. That happened in late-March of 2025, so pretty recently, though the company has already said that it will register its business in Japan and Canada, so it seems to be looking for a suitable plot of land on which to rebuild this component of its setup.Many security researchers and law enforcement officials have warned that the time to crack down on Huione and similar conglomerates is now, because they're currently reliant on partially exposed third-parties like Telegram and Tether. Once they successfully move those activities inward, they'll be a lot more difficult to track, but also nearly impossible to shutter, unless there's a significant change in the government and enforcement climate in the countries in which they're based, which at this point at least, looks unlikely.Show Noteshttps://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/23/world/asia/cambodia-money-laundering-huione.htmlhttps://www.wired.com/story/the-largest-illicit-online-marketplace-ever-is-growing-at-an-alarming-rate/https://www.wired.com/story/pig-butchering-scam-crypto-huione-guarantee/https://www.wired.com/story/interpol-pig-butchering-scams-rename/https://www.propublica.org/article/casinos-cambodia-myanmar-laos-southeast-asia-fraud-cybercrimehttps://krebsonsecurity.com/2025/04/china-based-sms-phishing-triad-pivots-to-banks/#more-70793https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_phone_spam This is a public episode.

Die Credit Suisse wurde am 19. März 2023 von der UBS übernommen. Auch zwei Jahre später sitzt der Schock noch tief. Wie konnte es so weit kommen? Und: Was für einen Finanzplatz will die Schweiz mit nur noch einer Grossbank? Im Gegensatz zur UBS überstand die Credit Suisse die Finanzkrise ohne staatliche Unterstützung. Doch dann sanken ihre Erträge, mit ihrer viel zu grossen Investmentbank geriet die CS ins Hintertreffen. Führungs- und Strategiewechsel brachten die Bank nicht zur Ruhe, Skandale häuften sich, Verluste waren schmerzhaft. Im Film blicken ehemalige Führungskräfte auf die turbulenten Jahre zurück. Wie kam es so weit, dass am 19. März 2023 die Spitzen von Nationalbank, Finma und Bundesrat die Übernahme der CS durch die UBS verkündeten? Warum wählten sie diesen Weg, von dem heute viele sagen, dass er der UBS ein Schnäppchen ermöglichte? Und: Wie geht es weiter in der Schweiz mit nur einer Grossbank – was bedeutet es für die Steuerzahlerinnen und Steuerzahler, wenn die neue UBS ins Straucheln gerät? Die Geschichte der Credit Suisse ist noch nicht fertig erzählt.

Freedom Broadcasters Livestream Dec 5, 2024, Thursday 12:00 PM EST Guest: Lawrence Freeman Topic: Africa's Role in Shaping the New Global Order: Economic Growth,Geopolitical Strategies, Fight for Sovereignty and Freedom from Poverty https://lawrencefreemanafricaandtheworld.com/ Bio: Lawrence Freeman stands as a prominent political-economic analyst with over three decades of dedicated experience in Africa, particularly within the discipline of physical economics. His unwavering advocacy for authentic economic growth through the enhancement of critical infrastructure, particularly in rail transportation and electricity, underscores his commitment to the principle that economic development is a fundamental human right. By prioritizing the sovereignty of African nations, Freeman empowers local leaders to advocate for policies that center on the welfare of their citizens. Freeman's significant contributions to economic policy span several countries, including Ethiopia, Sudan, Mali, Chad, Nigeria, the Central African Republic, and Côte d'Ivoire. He champions transformative projects such as the Transaqua initiative, aimed at revitalizing Lake Chad, and the African Union's African Integrated High-Speed Rail Network (AIHSN). Additionally, he is actively engaged in developing an African Infrastructure Development Plan inspired by Alexander Hamilton's National Bank framework. In addition to his policy work, Freeman enriches the academic landscape by teaching African history at a Maryland institution and disseminating his insights through a multitude of scholarly articles. His proactive involvement in international media, along with advisory roles—most notably with the Lake Chad Basin Commission—further amplifies his influence. Freeman's work is not just critical; it is also inspiring, fostering a promising vision for Africa's socio-economic development, and highlighting the indispensable role that infrastructure plays in achieving sustainable growth and prosperity. --- Help Support the show through my Business Partners :  Find Virtual Assistants at https://va.world/ Upgrade Your Brain  Unleash & Use Your Uniqueness   https://braingym.fitness/⁠  -------------------------- Awakening Podcast Social Media / Coaching My Other Podcasts  ⁠⁠⁠https://roycoughlan.com/⁠⁠ Health & Wellness Products https://partnerco.world/ My Website https://partner.co/?custid=N6543249  ------------------ Hosts: GraceAsagra, RN MA Podcast:  Quantum Nurse http://graceasagra.bio.link/ TIP/DONATE LINK for Grace Asagra @ Quantum Nurse Podcast https://patron.podbean.com/QuantumNurse Drago Bosnic BRICS portal (infobrics.org) https://t.me/CerFunhouse Special Guest Host: PD Lawton https://africanagenda.net/ Roy CoughlanPodcast: AWAKENINGhttps://www.awakeningpodcast.org/ https://www.awakeningpodcast.org/support/ Hartmut Schumacher
