Running guns and drugs is very lucrative, but it leaves you with the problem of dirty money. So you start/buy a bunch of banks in places like the Bahamas, the Caymans, Libya, Switzerland, and transfer money between them to wash it making its origin hard to trace. Those same banks are also the places the rich like to hide from taxes.

Look into guys like Michele Sindona, Wild Bill Donovan, Meyer Lansky, Willis Bird (Mr Opium), and Otto Skorzeny. Or The Safari Club, The World Commerce Corporation, Merex, and Paladin Group. Or how the KMT rebels funded themselves. There’s a network of actors post WWII who have used the proceeds of gun/drug running to help place their fingers on the scales of politics the world over, overstepping legal and national boundaries.

Probably the most well known example is the Iran-Contra affair where Reagan sold arms to Iran in order to fund rebels in Nicaragua.

They want to IPO once there’s a ban on models not ok’d by the administration.
