Really good day for UK asset recovery efforts. The Serious Fraud Office was successful in seizing assets from a major fraudster and from a former director of Brazilian national oil company Petrobras in relation to the infamous Operation Car Wash.

Crime is not just about injustice, it is also about illegally acquired profits! And the most effective way to fight #organisedcrime is to take away just that: the criminal assets. Watch my speech on EU Directive on Asset Confiscation. #AssetRecovery #Oligarchs #Mafia

Verbrechen dürfen sich nicht lohnen! Und die Unterstützung von Kriegsverbrechen sowieso nicht! Im Rechtsausschuss arbeiten wir deswegen an einem neuen Gesetz zur Konfiszierung von Vermögen - auch das der Oligarchen, die Putin finanziell und ideell unterstützen. #AssetRecovery

The proposed EU #AssetRecovery process 🔽

🔴 Extends the mandate of Asset Recovery Offices to swiftly trace and identify assets subject to EU restrictive measures. Also applies to criminal assets, urgently freezing property where there is a risk that assets could disappear.

2⃣ @EU_Commission takes action with stronger #AssetRecovery rules and tools.

Asset recovery is a powerful tool. We need to deprive the criminals of what matters the most to them: money.

2⃣ La Commission européenne prend des mesures avec des règles et des outils plus stricts d’#AssetRecovery.

Le recouvrement des avoirs est un outil puissant. Nous devons priver les criminels de ce qui compte le plus pour eux: l'argent.
