Major Raid in Palma: What the Investigations Mean for the Island

Answer

What is money laundering and why does it matter in Mallorca?

Money laundering is the process of making illegal money appear legitimate through financial or property transactions. It matters in Mallorca because the island’s active property market and professional services can be attractive to people trying to hide the origin of funds. When such activity is suspected, it can affect trust in institutions and in the real estate sector.
