As a result of expertise, he was called upon to set up and run an offshore bank, a stock brokerage firm and a financial services company, all as undercover operations for federal law enforcement.

Mr. Bruton, who is also an Enrolled Agent (EA) with the IRS and a Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE), has written several articles on international money laundering and internet bank fraud. He has testified before Congress relative to needed changes in the federal money laundering laws and lectured on the subject at the Cambridge University in the United Kingdom several times as well as in other foreign venues. Mr. Bruton has substantial professional experience overseas, including assisting the United Nations High Representative in Bosnia with the investigation of that country’s second largest bank and its attempt to launder illegal proceeds.

Mr. Bruton is a key instructor in MAI’s Financial Investigation Training program and is consistently lauded by those in attendance for his ability to make even the most complex financial transaction or money laundering scheme understandable.
