Criminal Finances Act 2017 is a new legislation guide which explains how the Criminal Finances Bill (which amends the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002) will affect your clients' business, how your firm will need to advise on it, as well as the effects it will have on your own firm.

Composed of two parts: part one includes expert commentary on the Bill, breaking it down point-by-point; and part two reproduces the full text of the Criminal Finances Bill.

This essential guide will help your firm:
*avoid corporate failure to prevent the facilitation of tax evasion
*advise your clients on statutory defences
*advise your clients on the new unexplained wealth orders
*understand the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002, and the money laundering regulations 2007 as amended by the new Act, in particular the duties of solicitors to submit suspicious activity reports.

Hugo Daniel Lodge is a barrister who works at the cutting edge of white collar and corporate crime and is experienced in defending high-profile corporate clients from prosecution and investigation.
