This report, funded by the EU and developed by UNICRI, highlights innovative strategies and global success stories in asset recovery to combat organized crime and corruption.
The report aligns with international conventions and guidelines, and showcases effective accelerated methods for the confiscation of illicitly-acquired assets, including non-conviction-based forfeiture. Essential for policymakers and law enforcement, it aims to strengthen the rule of law and promote transparency.
Effective asset recovery has significant implications for sustainable development and stability, contributing directly to the goals of peace, justice, and strong institutions as outlined in Goal 16 of the UN's 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
