Sažetak
The strict preventive measures in the financial sector force money launderers to seek alternative channels for money laundering operations. Unique characteristics of the football sector and sport in general represent alternative means of money laundering than in the sectors traditionally exploited by money launderers. Likewise actions were noticed by some football and European authorities as a starting point of raising awareness of the money laundering risks and establishing implementation of the anti-money laundering measures in the football sector. The culmination of those initiatives was a comprehensive report made by the Financial Action Task Force that identifies the risks of money laundering in the structure, finance and culture of the football sector. Those risks are enhanced by the unique characteristics of the governance and financial structure of the football sector such as the complex networks of stakeholders and the substantial amount of money involved. Money launderers could take advantage of these vulnerabilities and apply money laundering methods that are traditionally used in the trade of goods and services in the context of the football sector.
