The paper aims at shedding some light on the dynamics of competition among off-shore centers that attract capitals of illicit origins. The paper takes a relational approach, focusing on the relations established between off-shore centers and criminal organizations, in order to design the optimal international financial regulation. The main problem faced by off-shore countries is one of devising a credible commitment not to behave opportunistically ex post the exchange with criminal organizations. More specifically, off-shore centers need to post a "hostage" that increases criminal organizations' trust in the exchange. This result is ensured by a solid reputation as a supplier of criminal financial services and by dependence on revenues generated by money laundering.
