🧠Expert Take

“I think the biggest differentiator between crypto and tokenization is crypto is this catch-all term. It’s a catch-all term to define digitalized or digitized assets. And it’s also a catch-all term that these assets, these digital assets, are then transacted on a blockchain. So that in and of itself is something that we can use kind of synonymously when referring to digital assets.

And more importantly, I think crypto is, interestingly, the systems on which you transact. ” - Fizza Khan

Organized Crime and the Hidden Risks Facing Legitimate Businesses

Organized crime no longer operates only through underground channels. Criminal networks increasingly exploit legitimate businesses through supply chain infiltration, money laundering operations, shell companies, labor exploitation, procurement fraud, and cyber-enabled financial crime. Organizations often underestimate how deeply criminal activity can intersect with normal business operations.

Industries involving logistics, construction, hospitality, retail, financial services, and international trade remain especially vulnerable. Weak third-party oversight, poor vendor due diligence, and fragmented compliance controls can create entry points for illicit activity. Businesses are now expected to strengthen supplier screening, transaction monitoring, whistleblower channels, and anti-fraud governance programs.
