Kenneth Rijock is a financial crime consultant based in Miami.

He is believed to be the only former banking attorney-turned career money launderer who actively consults with law enforcement and the financial community.

He has extensive experience in money laundering tactics and tradecraft.

Whilst serving a federal prison sentence for racketeering and money laundering, he assisted with the first joint Swiss-American money laundering investigation of bankers and lawyers which resulted in a major seizure of the proceeds of crime.
