Our Iranian sources have confirmed that officials in the IRGC are using front companies to invest in the Western democracies, including but not limited to the UK, Canada and with several Members of the EU. They are using clean frontmen, and family members of the IRGC agents, as company directors, thereby keeping the names of sanctioned individuals from bankers, resulting in the unwitting approval of the placement of their funds by compliance departments.
By way of illustration, ESMAEIL REZAJOUI, an Iranian national who reportedly has bank accounts in the United Kingdom, allegedly at HSBC and Barclays, and fronts for several IRGC officials investing their money in the USA, is but one example of participants in this covert operation.
We are also aware that one of the world's largest accounting firms is opening Asset Protection Trusts in Canada for IRGC interests. Canadian law enforcement has recently begun a major investigation into Iranian investments, including those made by sanctioned Iranian individuals who are members of the IRGC.
