Abstract

Pranje novca i financiranje terorizma svjetski su problemi današnjice, ne poznaju državne granice te zahtijevaju globalno rješavanje. U posljednjih nekoliko godina napredovale su metode i načini pranja novca te financiranja terorizma. Rapidnim razvojem tehnologija taj trend će se nastaviti te će borba protiv pranja novca i financiranja terorizma biti sve kompleksnija. Na samom početku rada definirati će se pranje novca i njegove karakteristike, te će se dotaknuti tema poput faza pranja novca, utjecaja pranja novca na svjetsku ekonomiju, također, govoriti će se o definiciji financiranja terorizma propisanoj Kaznenim zakonom i međunarodnim propisima te o samoj metodologiji pranja novca.

Drugi dio rada će se usredotočiti na proučavanju grupe za financijsku akciju protiv pranja novca (eng. The Financial Action Task Force-FATF) koja se bavi problemom pranja novca i financiranja terorizma. Detaljnije će se analizirati obuhvat preporuka FATF-a kao jednog od najviših tijela u borbi protiv kriminala, predstaviti će se glavne prepreke s kojima se FATF bori te problemi koje stvaraju države koje se nalaze na tzv. Grey List ili tzv. siva lista te Black List ili crna lista. Također će se istražiti značaj i uloga tijela kojeg su osnovale zemlje G-7 (SAD, Japan, Francuska, Njemačka, Italija, Ujedinjeno Kraljevstvo i Kanada), FATF-a. Proći će se kroz implementacijske probleme 40+9 preporuka s nacionalnim zakonodavstvima država članica. Cilj ovog rada je objasniti problem pranja novca i financiranja terorizma te proučiti koliko su zapravo utjecajne preporuke FATF-a u borbi protiv pranja novca i financiranja terorizma te njegovu važnost u rješavanju problema i dugotrajnost.

Abstract (english)

Money laundering and the financing of terrorism are global problems today, they know no national borders and require a global solution. In the last few years, the trends and methods of money laundering and terrorist financing have advanced. With the rapid development of technologies, this trend will continue and the fight against money laundering and terrorist financing will become more and more complex. At the very beginning of the paper, money laundering and its characteristics will be defined, and topics such as the stages of money laundering, the impact of money laundering on the world economy will be touched upon, as well as the definition of terrorist financing prescribed by the Criminal Code and international regulations, and the very methodology of money laundering will be discussed.
The second part of the paper will focus on the study of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), which deals with the problem of money laundering and terrorist financing. The scope of FATF's recommendations as one of the highest bodies in the fight against crime will be analyzed in more detail, the main obstacles that FATF is struggling with and the problems created by countries located on the so-called gray list and Black List. The significance and role of the body founded by the G-7 countries (USA, Japan, France, Germany, Italy, United Kingdom and Canada), FATF, will also be explored. It will go through the implementation problems of the 40+9 recommendations with the national legislation of the member states. The aim of this paper is to explain the problem of money laundering and terrorist financing and to study how influential FATF's recommendations are in the fight against money laundering and terrorist financing, as well as their importance in solving the problem and their longevity.
