An academic who went undercover to test the willingness of corporate service providers in onshore and offshore jurisdiction to provide anonymous shell companies for criminal activity has become the latest confirmed speaker for next month's OffshoreAlert conference in London.

Dr. Daniel Nielson will speak about what he and his fellow investigators found when they posed as would-be money launderers, corrupt officials, and terrorist financiers and approached more than 3,700 corporate service providers that form and sell shell companies in 182 countries.
