Usury, Money Laundering and Other Financial Crimes

Usury, Money Laundering and Other Financial Crimes

Financial crimes are among the most complex areas of criminal law involving both individuals and businesses. Investigations in these cases often rely on bank records, commercial documents, accounting records, expert reports, and other financial evidence.

When Does Criminal Liability Arise?

  • Allegations of usury

  • Fraud and aggravated fraud

  • Breach of trust

  • Tax evasion and tax-related offenses

  • Forgery of official or private documents

  • Money laundering (laundering proceeds of crime)

  • Embezzlement, bribery, and other financial crimes

The Importance of the Investigation Stage

In financial crime investigations, it is essential that evidence is collected and assessed in accordance with the law. The nature of commercial transactions, the purpose of financial transfers, contractual relationships, and accounting records must be carefully examined based on the specific circumstances of each case.
