Date: 19th of March
Time: 08:00 – 17:00
Place: Athene p46, OsloMet
Money laundering and tax avoidance and evasion contribute to crime and unacceptably high levels of global wealth inequality. At “Making Transparency Possible” bankers, economists, investigative journalists, whistle-blowers and authorities and academics meet to discuss what can be done to make finance more transparent.
Attendants will learn about the investigations of money laundering at Den Danske Bank and Swedbank, as well as methodologies to reveal Icelandic corruption related to fisheries in Namibia.
Among the keynote speakers are Bradley Birkenfeld, a former international banker and whistle-blower. He obtained the largest reward ever given to an individual whistle-blower for reporting IRS Tax Fraud, and William Bourdon a lawyer who has defended whistle-blowers related to cases such as the Lux Leaks and Football Leaks.
The conference is open for all audience and free of charge.
