E156: What happens to Iran's shadow banking network now?
About this episode
The episode discusses the implications of ongoing conflict in Iran on its shadow banking network.
Bombs are dropping on Iran, and we’ve seen the death of the Supreme Leader, counter-strikes across the region, global supply lanes in crisis, and spiraling oil prices. Despite all the fire and the fury, one thing you can count on is that dark money never stops moving. Our expert host, Marit Rødevand, is joined by Josh Birenbaum , Deputy Director of the Center on Economic and Financial Power at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies , to ask: What happens to Iran’s shadow banking network now? The pair discuss the anatomy of a shadow banking network, how Iran’s network was built through global pressure, and how valuable that network is in a time of open warfare.
