Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to show modus operandi of money laundering used in Bosnia and Herzegovina and in other parts of the world. From these examples, we can recognize the sectors and intermediaries through which the money is laundered, although the full scale of actual methods, intermediaries, and countries remain unknown. The techniques of money laundering are constantly changing, due to the fact that criminals use different ways to hide the illegal origin of the money, using the weaknesses of certain sectors within different countries. Additionally, what makes it even more difficult is the fact that money laundering as an activity is constantly evolving, while those laundering the money keep discovering new ways to avoid, not only the activities of law enforcement agencies in charge of money laundering prevention and investigation, but also the unison legislative and regulatory approach of governments and international community in prevention and investigation of money laundering.
