money laundering
Legitimizing money from organized or other crime by paying it through normal business channels. EU measures exist to control, on an EU-wide basis, the laundering of money, especially that resulting from organized crime. The Money Laundering Regulations 2007 (SI 2007 No 2157) came into force in December 2007, in compliance with the EU’s Third Money Laundering Directive of 2005. Part 7 of the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 (s 327–29) also creates a series of money-laundering offences. |
