The past fifteen years witnessed the emergence globally of a
plethora of legislative measures aimed at countering money
laundering. These developments have been inextricably linked with
the growing international focus on newly perceived and/or
prioritized global security threats such as organized crime and
terrorism with money laundering counter-measures deemed essential
to counter these threats. Taking these developments into account,
this book examines in detail the evolution and content of money
laundering counter-measures in the European Union. These measures
constitute a new paradigm of security governance, achieved through
three principal methods: criminalization, consisting in the
emergence of new criminal offences; responsibilisation, consisting
in the mobilization of the private sector to co-operate with the
authorities in the fight against money laundering; and the emphasis
on the administration of knowledge, through the establishment of
new institutions, the financial intelligence units, with extensive
powers to administer a wide range of information provided by the
private sector. This paradigm may pose significant challenges to
fundamental legal principles and to well-established social
structures and the book attempts to address this balance. This
up-to-date analysis includes the provisions of the new EU
money-laundering Directive which was formally adopted in December
2001.
