The situation in Russia concerning the money laundering of criminal income has changed drastically in 2006, Finance Minister Alexei Kudrin told a congress of accountants and auditors. According to him, the Federal Financial Monitoring Service has initiated more than 200 criminal cases on counts of money laundering. He also added that the Central Bank has revoked more than 50 bank licenses in 2006, along with more than 70 over the last two years. Kudrin explained that this meant that the ministry was managing to find banks which carried out illegal transactions.
