Money Laundering & Proceeds of Crime
Money laundering refers to the process of concealing the source of illegally obtained money. The methods by which money may be laundered are varied and can range in sophistication.
Offences such as these can result in sentences of up to 14 years imprisonment. Money laundering prosecutions have increased dramatically since the introduction of the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 (POCA) and there is now a statutory duty on professionals and institutions to report activity that they know, suspect or ought reasonably to suspect is money laundering.
It is also not uncommon for those facing prosecution for alleged criminal activity to also face investigation and prosecution for money laundering and any benefit from criminal conduct.
