EU putting a stranglehold on dirty money
Money-laundering is the process by which criminal proceeds are 'cleaned' so that their illegal origins are hidden. It is the way crime disguises its activity, by processing its dirty money. Although it is not possible to measure in the same way as legitimate economic activity; the scale of the problem is considered to be enormous. The International Monetary Fund has estimated that the aggregate size of money-laundering is anywhere between 2 and 5 % of the world's gross domestic product
What is being done at EU level to combat money-laundering?
Evidence of the EU's determination to tackle money-laundering is clear. The Tampere European Council in October 1999 stated "Money laundering is at the very heart of organised crime. It shoule be rooted out whereever it occurs. The European Council is determined to ensure that concrete steps are taken to trace, freeze, seize and confiscate the proceeds of crime." Further proof was demonstrated by the first ever joint EU Council of Finance and Justice and Home Affairs Ministers in October 2000. Measures adopted to combat money laundering include the EU Council of Ministers' decision of October 2000 concerning arrangements for cooperation between financial intelligence units (FIUs) of the Member States and a Council Act of November 2000 amending the terms of the Europol Convention to

OFFICE FOR DRUG CONTROL AND CRIME PREVENTION GLOBAL PROGRAMME AGAINST
MONEY LAUNDERING The Global Programme against Money Laundering (GPML) is a research and technical assistance three-year programme (1997-99) implemented by the Office for Drug Control and Crime Prevention (ODCCP). Its aim is to increase the effectiveness of international action against money laundering through comprehensive technical cooperation services offered to Governments.
The Programme encompasses three main areas of activity, each of which provides various means for States and institutions in their efforts to effectively combat the money laundering phenomenon. I. Technical cooperation is the main pillar of the Programme, encompassing activities of awareness-raising, institution building and training:
  • Organization of national and regional awareness-raising seminars at technical level for public officials, judicial officers, and financial sector representatives, including elaboration of awareness-raising methods and materials. The purpose of awareness-raising is to achieve proper recognition of the threat that money laundering represents to national economies and to eliminate the misperception that anti-money laundering measures could negatively impact foreign investment and trade liberalization. Assistance in building legal and institutional frameworks through legal and drafting assistance; development of model instruments to establish appropriate countermeasures in the law and financial sectors; delivery of country-tailored recommendations for policy making and action; and transfer of know-how for the establishment of Financial Intelligence Units (FIUs).

Fact Sheet No. 5 United Nations General Assembly
Special Session on the World Drug Problem New York, 8-10 June 1998 MONEY LAUNDERING The laundering of money derived from illicit drug trafficking , as well as from other serious crimes, has become a global threat to the integrity and stability of financial and trading systems. The international community must work together to stop these practices to protect itself and to deny drug traffickers their ill-gotten gains. Seizing even large amounts of drugs often only has a limited impact on overall trafficking and abuse of illicit narcotics. Supply is sufficiently elastic to accommodate sharp falls in product availability. Even street prices for drugs have shown themselves immune to large seizures. However, blocking and taking away the profits from drug sales at their entry point into the financial system can significantly disrupt trafficking operations. Money, after all, is both the lifeblood and the sole end of illicit trafficking. It is critical to prevent the cash which comes directly from the sale of drugs from being converted into other financial instruments or assets. After the conversion has been made, subsequent transactions can create a complex paper trail which makes identification of the illicit source difficult. To harmonize the efforts of the international community to counter money laundering, the United Nations Convention against Illicit traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances of 1988 requires the States which are party to it to declare money laundering a punishable offence. They are also required to adopt measures to identify and freeze or confiscate proceeds from the sale of illicit drugs and promote international cooperation against money laundering.

Review of the FATF 40 Recommendations
The Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering (FATF) is the international body responsible for setting anti-money laundering and anti-terrorist financing standards. Canada is an active participant in the FATF and in the fight against money laundering , terrorist financing and other abuses of the global financial system. The FATF recently published a document entitled, "Review of the FATF Forty Recommendations Consultation Paper," and has asked for public comment. The paper proposes options for strengthening task force recommendations, which have been endorsed by more than 130 countries and are widely accepted as the leading international anti-money laundering standard. However, since they were last revised in 1996, money laundering methods have changed and new technologies have been developed. The Consultation Paper covers such topics as customer identification, suspicious transaction reporting and the application of anti-money laundering obligations to non-financial businesses and professions.

The hawala alternative remittance system and its role in money laundering

Executive summary
What is hawala? How does hawala work? Why would anyone bother with hawala ... End note Executive summary This paper presents a description of the hawala (also referred to as hundi) alternative remittance system. Hawala is an ancient system originating in South Asia; today it is used around the world to conduct legitimate remittances. Like any other remittance system, hawala can, and does, play a role in money laundering. In addition to serving as a 'tutorial' on hawala transaction, this paper will also discuss the way in which hawala is used to facilitate money laundering. What is hawala? Hawala ( ) is an alternative or parallel remittance system. It exists and operates outside of, or parallel to 'traditional' banking or financial channels. It was developed in India, before the introduction of western banking practices, and is currently a major remittance system used around the world. It is but one of several such systems; another well known example is the 'chop', 'chit' or 'flying money' system indigenous to China, and also, used around the world. These systems are often referred to as 'underground banking'; this term is not always correct, as they often operate in the open with complete legitimacy, and these services are often heavily and effectively advertised.
