1. laundering

   Laundering generally refers to the process of making illegally-gained proceeds (dirty money) appear legal, a process usually known as money laundering. It involves three steps: placement, layering, and integration. Placement refers to the process of introducing the illicit money into the financial system. Layering is the process of masking the origins of the money through complex transactions and bookkeeping tricks. Integration involves merging the now clean money with the mainstream economy with every trace of its illegal origin cleaned. The term can also refer to the act of washing or the process of being washed, as in laundering clothes. This is its literal sense, from which the metaphorical usage for financial crimes has been derived.
