INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS AND BODIES CONCERNED WITH PREVENTING AND COUNTERING MONEY LAUNDERING AND TAX EVASION

Summary/Abstract: By suspending controls at internal borders of the European Union Member States risks to identify the origins of illegally obtained money have increased. In a recent study, it is noted that "the single market advanced faster than the reforms" so that of the 100 million intra-Community trades that are made annually (which are subjected to WATT), today none of them is checked. Furthermore, cash smuggling has obviously increased and has been intensely used in recent years. Cash smuggling is an attractive mechanism because currency can be easily converted on international informal markets and leaves no evidence on paper for the suspicious transaction to be detected. In this context, the role of international organizations and bodies is essential in preventing and countering money laundering and tax evasion.
