Produktbeschreibung
In recent decades, the menace of grand corruption and money laundering has remained an enduring and formidable challenge in Nigeria. History is littered with outrageous examples of the way in which politically exposed persons have embezzled and plundered public funds, while resorting to domestic and international financial institutions to launder the proceeds of grand corruption. Therefore, based on various research methodologies, this book is focused on and presents the first socio-legal assessment of the Nigerian anti-money laundering legal, regulatory and institutional frameworks for combating the prevalence of money-laundering activities involving politically exposed persons. Given the distinctive political, economic and financial powers, owing to their control over state resources; this study also delves into the political, constitutional and legal obstacles hindering the enforcement of anti-money laundering laws targeting politically exposed persons.Ultimately, this book advocates for the implementation of the Unexplained Wealth Orders, which provides more opportunities and grants law enforcement greater authority to facilitate the recovery of the proceeds of corruption.
