In this episode of “Financial Crime Matters,” Kieran talks with former South African jurist Richard Goldstone about his current efforts as a board member at Integrity Initiatives International, to help create the International Anti-Corruption Court (IACC).

Richard, who served on South Africa’s Constitutional Court and then led several international justice initiatives, discusses the trillion-dollar cost of corruption to many nations’ infrastructure, public health and education, and how it empowers authoritarian oligarchs.

Detailing the current draft charter for the Court, Richard makes a compelling case that the IACC could seize stolen assets and hold accountable kleptocrats who currently escape the purview of the International Criminal Court, which focuses on genocide, war crimes and other acts of aggression.
