Download or read book Money Laundering Through Art written by Fausto Martin De Sanctis and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-13 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The art world has been discovered by criminals as an effective way for money laundering and other clandestine activities on an international level. Unfortunately, in most countries investigators, prosecutors, judges, and regulatory agencies are not equipped to accurately detect, investigate and prosecute this type of criminal activity. Also, regulation and international laws and treaties involving the art world have many loopholes that can potentially lead to the laundering of large sums of money. This book provides a bird’s eye view of novel ways in which money laundering happens through illegal activities involving art. It can serve as a guide for law enforcement, prosecutors, judges, and others involved in efforts to curb money laundering and financing of terrorism, revealing why somehow new techniques used by criminals have been neglected by law enforcement in most countries. Drawing from his own experience with the matter in both Brazil and in the United States, the author makes a case for broader institutional and regulatory improvement, extending beyond mere regulation of the art market.

Download or read book International Money Laundering Through Real Estate and Agribusiness written by Fausto Martin De Sanctis and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-02-13 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines two types of transnational money laundering: the use of offshores and wire transfers to “invest” in real estate; and agribusiness, a nebulous activity that is difficult to regulate. The author also examines current international mechanisms to combat money-laundering; whether these efforts have been successful or unsuccessful; and whether multilateral instruments are an effective tool in the war against international organized crime. As national borders have opened and trade barriers have fallen, transnational crime has grown at unprecedented levels. The current situation, better revealed by the so-called “Panama Papers,” is a result of a lack of local cooperation in the investigations, prosecution, and/or extradition of criminals. Governments profit from ill-gotten wealth hosting international criminal enterprises in their own territories, thus providing a fertile ground for illicit practices, closing their eyes to the nexus among false or inappropriate identification, fraudulent records, corruption, and money laundering. If these types of transnational money-laundering are allowed to remain as they are currently treated, the shift in the financial paradigm, from centralized and regulated to decentralized and “unregulated,” would allow for the continuation of some of the most dangerous criminal activity. In this timely book, the author presents arguments that by “following the money,” capital movements involved in transnational money laundering through real estate and agribusiness can be examined, revealed, and understood.

Book excerpt: El 5 de octubre de 1988, se promulgó la Constitución de Brasil de 1988 o Constitución de la República federativa de Brasil, la cual también fue conocida como la Constitución Ciudadana. Este texto tiene vigencia en la actualidad y fue elaborado por la Asamblea Nacional Constituyente, compuesta por 559 diputados, y presidida por Ulysses Guimãres. La Constitución Federal de 1988 estableció que la República Federativa del Brasil se constituyera como un Estado Democrático de Derecho, inaugurando una nueva era en el constitucionalismo brasileño, rompiendo el ciclo autoritario que dominó el país de 1964 hasta mediados de la década de los ochenta. Su estructura difiere de las constituciones anteriores. Comprende nueve títulos, que tratan: 1) de los principios fundamentales; 2) de los derechos y garantías fundamentales, según una perspectiva moderna y que abarca los derechos individuales y colectivos, los derechos sociales de los trabajadores, la nacionalidad, los derechos políticos y de los partidos políticos; 3) de la organización del Estado, en la que estructura a la federación con sus componentes; 4) de la organización de los poderes: Poder Legislativo, Poder Ejecutivo y Poder Judicial, con la manutención del sistema presidencialista, derrotado el parlamentarismo. Contiene, además, un capítulo sobre las funciones esenciales de la Justicia, con ministerio público, abogacía pública (de la Unión y de los Estados), abogacía privada y defensa pública; 5) de la defensa del Estado y de las instituciones democráticas, con mecanismos del estado de defensa, del estado de sitio y de la seguridad pública; 6) de la tributación y del presupuesto; 7) del orden económico y financiero; 8) del orden social; 9) de las disposiciones generales.

Download or read book Football Gambling and Money Laundering written by Fausto Martin De Sanctis and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-05-05 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Professional football means many things to many people. For players, a means to possible fame and fortune. For fans, a source of local or national pride, and perhaps the chance to score with a few bets. For criminal organizations, a cover for making millions in corrupt enterprises. In the world of gambling this is no different. Football, Gambling, and Money Laundering describes in impressive detail the scope of the problem, the layers of denial that allow sports-related financial crime to flourish, and the steps that are being taken--and that need to be taken--to combat illicit operations in the sports world. Expert analysis explains criminal activity in the context of football, and how sports governing bodies, the media, and others have created a culture that regularly turns a blind eye. International data and instructive legal case examples shed light on the role of the Internet in the spread of gambling and money laundering as well as the strengths and weaknesses of current law enforcement, legislative, and sports-based efforts in fighting corruption. Included in the coverage: • Criminal activity in the sports world • Financial crime and exploitation in football and gambling • Legal wagering and illegal betting, including online • Illegal and disguised payment instruments used by organized crime • International legal cooperation in combating money laundering • National and international proposals for improving the sports and gambling industries to prevent money laundering An authoritative reference to a growing and wide-reaching concern, Football, Gambling,and Money Laundering will find an interested audience among academics, prosecutors, judges, law enforcement officials, and others involved in efforts to curb corruption and money laundering in the world of football.
