According to 2020 reports about the Camorra, the [[United Kingdom]] is an area of interest to launder money, using finance companies and business activities. The [[Casalesi clan]], through an entrepreneur and alleged financial intermediary, had invested 12 million euros using various companies based in Great Britain.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2020-04-15|title=Mafia nel Regno unito: la relazione della Dia |publisher=Il Tacco d'Italia|url=https://www.iltaccoditalia.info/2020/04/14/mafia-nel-regno-unito-la-relazione-della-dia/|access-date=2020-06-03|language=it-IT}}</ref>

Antonio Righi, called "Tonino il biondo", was considered by the investigators as a money laudererer on behalf of the [[Contini clan|Contini]] and [[Mazzarella clan|Mazzarella]] clans in [[London]].<ref>{{Cite web|date=2017-07-17|title=Exposed: The Italians making a mockery of UK law|url=http://www.standard.co.uk/business/occupation-fraudster-address-street-of-40-thieves-how-italians-mocked-uk-company-rules-a3589906.html|access-date=2020-06-03|website=Evening Standard|language=en}}</ref> Although the two organizations are historically rivals, in England they were represented by the same man. Among the British companies that figured in his scheme, was one registered at a luxurious terraced house not far from Oxford Street in London's West End. The trial built against Righi clearly showed that he understood exactly how modern global finance works. The Italian police confiscated 250 million euros belonging to Righi.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Gran Bretagna - Pizza, friarielli e pounds: la ricetta per il riciclaggio dei Contini a Londra|url=https://www.ilfattoquotidiano.it/longform/mafie-europa/focus/gran-bretagna/|access-date=2020-06-03|website=Il Fatto Quotidiano|language=it}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|first1=Matteo|last1=Civillini|first2=Cecilia|last2=Anesi|first3=Giulio|last3=Rubino|title=How the Camorra Went Global|url=https://www.occrp.org/en/investigations/6750-how-the-camorra-went-global|access-date=2020-06-03|website=www.occrp.org|language=en}}</ref>

Between the mid-1980s and early 2000s, Scotland has had its brush with the Camorra, when [[Antonio La Torre]] of [[Aberdeen]] was the local ''"Boss"''. He is the brother of Camorra boss [[Augusto La Torre]] of the La Torre clan which had its base in [[Mondragone]], [[Caserta]]. The La Torre Clan's empire was worth hundreds of millions of euros. Antonio had several legitimate businesses in Aberdeen, whereas his brother Augusto had several illegal businesses there. Augusto would eventually become a [[pentito]] in January 2003.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.sundayherald.com/52046|title=He insists he's just a normal businessman living quietly with his wife and children in Aberdeen.
