This question is based on Idiomatic Usage.
The conjunction ‘because of’ should be followed by a noun rather than a participle. On that basis, we can eliminate Options A and B.
Option C is awkwardly worded. It also has the incorrect form of the verb. The clause after the verb ‘allows’ should contain a verb in the present subjunctive if the verb ‘allow’ is used in the sense of ‘permission’. So, the verb should have been ‘be transferred’. As ‘allow’ is used in the sentence, it conveys the meaning of acknowledging or making a concession. Therefore, Option C can be eliminated.
Option D is wordy. The verb ‘have been placed’ is unnecessary in this sentence. So, Option D can also be eliminated.
Option E has the appropriate idiomatic usage – allows….to be. It also has the appropriate construction – because + subject + verb. When the preposition ‘of’ is not used after the conjunction ‘because’, the conjunction should be followed by a subject and verb. Therefore, E is the most appropriate option.

Hello tkorzhan1995,
We hope this finds you well.
To answer your query, the primary error in Option C is that the phrase "that money placed in a bank in a less regulated jurisdiction is transferred" produces an incoherent meaning.
We hope this helps.
All the best!
