Summary: | This paper explores the relationship
between two regimes for preventing corruption: the detection
and monitoring of politically exposed persons (PEPs) for the
purpose of combating money laundering, and asset disclosure
requirements for public officials. These regimes are
generally designed and implemented separately. Yet as this
paper shows, an innovative use of asset disclosure tools
could benefit PEP practitioners. The paper seeks to raise
awareness of this potential and to connect asset disclosure
and PEP practitioners. |
