And of 'large proportion".
Depending on the figures you believe, crime accounts for between 1.5 and 4ish percent of World GDP.
London accounts for 22% of the UKs GDP, and a noteworthy amount of that is via the property market. Even using the property market alone as an example, the sector is top heavy with foreign buyers, many of whom are morally questionable at best, downright criminal at worst. The names are easy enough to google.
It would surprise me not if 5p or more of every pound that is generated in London has its origins in crime. That's not small change.
