    Uruguay's Conexión Ganadera case: founder’s daughter moved $15.9m, BCU says

    The largest share of Marcela Carrasco’s transfers went to Puente Corredor de Bolsa S.A., totaling US$ 4,700,620, all reportedly sent in 2018

    Uruguay’s Conexión Ganadera investigation — a criminal case stemming from the collapse of a livestock-linked investment operation that led to fraud charges and, in some instances, money-laundering allegations — has moved forward after the Central Bank of Uruguay (BCU) sent prosecutors a report detailing bank transfers made by Marcela Carrasco, the daughter of Pablo Carrasco, a founder of the firm who is currently in pre-trial detention and charged with money laundering.
