The “Theranos” metaphor again? Incredibly ridiculous comparison.
And the reality is that Russian mobsters and others routinely use transactions in small company, penny stocks and companies where value can be substantially and easily manipulated to create what look like legitimate, hedged transactions to effectively and tax efficiently move money from country A to country B and vice versa, by using transactions that counterbalance each other.
Getting evidence of wrongdoing that would allow for subpoenas or that would pierce tax shelter jurisdictions is virtually impossible just hiring a white collar crime lawyer or just going to prosecutors. This is particularly true when dealing with family funds and money managers, where the funds are part of an untransparent management arrangement. This is where contacts and knowledge in relation to intelligence gathering is likely extremely useful.
As the article below suggests at the end, there are numerous ways to profit from manipulation for different apparently disconnected parties and innovative but illegal schemes.
