On February 26, 2026, the FACT Coalition held a conversation with author Oliver Bullough, author of the new book Everybody Loves Our Dollars – How Money Laundering Won. Called a “jaw-dropping exposé” by The Guardian and “required reading” by The Financial Times, Everybody Loves Our Dollars shows how the world is flooded with dirty money. It traces the history of efforts to combat money laundering – from national legislation to global efforts such as the Financial Action Task Force – and why they so often fall woefully short.

In this recorded conversation, Oliver Bullough joined FACT’s executive director, Ian Gary, to discuss his new book, what his investigations found, and how politicians and regulators can more effectively tackle the scourge of dirty money.

About the author – Oliver Bullough is the author of Moneyland, Butler to the World, The Last Man in Russia and Let Our Fame Be Great. His journalism appears regularly in the Guardian, The New York Times and GQ.
