In a slightly longer than normal episode we do a deep dive into partnerships of various flavours and how the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act is going to change things.

Partnerships are not straightforward (hence the longer episode) but they are sensitive to abuse so this is an important topic for financial crime professionals.

And there is the offer of a free gift at the end of the episode!

One for the geeks! 

Changes in company formation levels are often use to justify/criticise different governments' economic policies.

We go behind the headline figures to see if this is justified or not (HINT: not!).
