Summary of Sam Cooper's Wilful Blindness

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Alderson, the anti-money-laundering director for the B. C. Lottery Corp, was about to meet with Calvin Chrustie, a senior officer with Canada’s Federal Serious and Organized Crime Unit. Chrustie had sent Alderson a cryptic text about a big deal. #2 Alderson was hired to help clean up the Lottery Corp. in 2015. He knew that China’s economy had to be considered in order to grasp what was happening in B. C. Lottery Corp. casinos. #3 The GPEB summit presented a summary of research that exposed the immense amounts of money flowing out of China and into foreign countries, with a large portion of it going to the ruling Communist Party members and their families. But the RCMP and GPEB investigators were still suspicious how the Chinese high rollers were able to carry so much cash into the casinos every day. #4 The Chinese community in Canada had established underground banking methods to facilitate trade, and this wasn’t a bad thing. As ridiculous as it may have sounded, the RCMP had known for years that wealthy visitors from China were moving loads of cash around Vancouver.
