Produktbeschreibung

The legal difficulties arising out of the growing number of money laundering cases reaching the courts are the subject of a burgeoning literature. There is vigorous debate among practitioners, judges and academics as to what the civil courts can do to assist plaintiffs seeking to recover funds in the UK and overseas. This collection of essays, the first on the subject, throws important fresh light on the solutions offered by the common law and equity, and considers the directions in which recent landmark cases are likely to take the law.
