The Anti-Fraud Network
The Anti-Fraud Network is a network
of lawyers who specialise in the pursuit of claims arising out of
the theft or other dishonest appropriation of assets, corruption,
misuse of confidential information or similar breaches of duty.
Recovering the proceeds of fraud and corruption is one of the truly
global problems facing organisations today. Proceeds rarely stay
in the country where they have been stolen. For organisations to
recover stolen or corrupt assets they need access to lawyers specialising
in their recovery across the world.
The Anti-Fraud Network is dedicated
to providing access to trusted points of contact across the globe
and offering a unified first-class international service to clients,
at a time when experience, speed, co-operation and highly responsive
service are most important.
The Latest Anti-Fraud Network Newsletter:
In this issue, Ed Magarian and Jonathan Wilson of Dorsey & Whitney look at the implications of Iran implementing its first AML laws. Read the article.
In the next issue, Judy Maguire from Allens Arthur Robinson will be reviewing the recent news that Australian tax evaders may be facing money laundering charges. In addition, Kent Schmidt of Dorsey & Whitney will consider positive steps to be taken to reduce the risk of US organisations breaching the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.
Readers of the February 2007 newsletter may recall the dismay with which we reported the UK's approach to its responsibilities when ending the investigation into alleged wrongdoing by BAE Systems. Our News column carries a brief summary of the Court's recent judgment overturning that decision and we will report more fully in the next issue.
