{mosads}The Treasury detailed an extensive global operation spanning the Western Hemisphere, the Middle East and Hong Kong, including several money exchanges in numerous countries as well as multiple front companies based in Colombia that exist to help launder illicit proceeds.

The designations were achieved under the Kingpin Act, signed into law at the end of 1999. Since 2000, the Treasury has designated more than 1,000 individuals and entities for their ties to major drug traffickers.
