This article aims at studying the national legislation, recommendations of international organizations (intergovernmental bodies), as well as the opinions of scholars and practitioners on the implementation of financial monitoring in the practice of law. The authors define the achievement of this goal by fulfilling the tasks set and answering the question of the correlation between the obligation to conduct financial monitoring and the attorney-client privilege. This article is of undoubted relevance due to Ukraine's active implementation of European integration processes and transformation of legislation in the field of prevention and counteraction to money laundering and terrorist financing. Along with this development is the independent status of the attorney-at-law and the practice of law, the maintenance and provision of which are constantly relevant in the State. The authors draw attention to the current legal regulation of financial monitoring in the practice of law, as well as to the FATF recommendations, emphasizing the importance of such a legal phenomenon as financial monitoring. The authors define the area of functional responsibility of law firms, law firms and attorneys-at-law who practice law individually as specially designated subjects of primary financial monitoring. In addition, this article emphasizes the peculiarities of financial monitoring in the practice of law and expresses concerns about certain peculiarities. At the same time, the authors outline the lack of unity in the attitude toward the purpose of financial monitoring, as well as the presence of scepticism and both constructive and unjustified criticism by practising attorneys at law of financial monitoring in the practice of law, namely its legal regulation. The authors determine that the most important result of this study is the emphasis on the need for a balanced ratio of the objectives of financial monitoring and the preservation of the independence of the legal profession. Summarizing, the researchers argue that financial monitoring is a challenge of the time, the achievement of which should not be declarative, but real. The reality of the goals of financial monitoring should be achieved by all subjects of the latter, including attorneys-at-law. At the same time, the combination of the status of an advocate and a subject of primary financial monitoring should be balanced, taking into account independence as a principle of the practice of law.

MONEY laundering , *CRIME , *PREVENTION of money laundering , *DRUG traffic , *INTERNATIONAL cooperation , *TREATIES - Abstract
The history of anti-money laundering legislation began with the criminalization of the proceeds derived from criminal offenses connected to drug trafficking. Illicit drug trafficking is linked also to other criminal activities that have a destabilizing effect on the economy and the development of society. Numerous international organizations have joined the fight against money laundering and terrorist financing by adopting international agreements seeking to regulate this matter. The most significant contribution to this matter has been made by international organizations such as United Nations, European Union, FATF, and MONEYVAL. Foundations of the legal regulations have been set by the adoption of the Conventions, while through the implementation of the Directives into national legislation, a uniform application of the measures for prevention of money laundering and financing of terrorism has been achieved. Since money laundering is often carried out in the international environment, the measures being brought for its prevention necessarily include international coordination and cooperation. Although the European Union has set a firm regulatory framework, as well as strategic priorities, there is a constant need for monitoring and adjustment of the regulations to new threats caused by money laundering activities.

The combating the crime of money laundering requires the development of mechanisms for collecting and analyzing bank data, to track, freeze and recover assets arising from criminal activities. In 1990, the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) prepared a set of 40 recommendations, establishing an international standard for combating money laundering. The 2010 FATF report pointed out that Brazil would not compliance all the criteria of its Recommendations 9, 30 and 31. The content of these recommendations requires that bank secrecy does not inhibit the combating against money laundering and the financing of terrorism, ensuring that competent authorities should have the ability to expeditiously identify, track and freeze criminal assets, and powers to request records held by financial institutions in a timely manner. This Master's Thesis has as general objective to analyze the form and the period needed to access bank data in federal criminal investigations, in order to verify accomplishment by the Brazilian penal system to the content of the FATF Recommendations 9, 30 and 31. To achieve this objective, the research (i) describes the concept and characteristics of the money laundering and its relationship with the financial system; (ii) analyzes the concept and foundation of bank secrecy in Brazil; (iii) indicates ways to access financial information in federal criminal investigations; (iv) discusses the legal nature and content of FATF Recommendations 9, 30 and 31; and (v) analyzes the data from the Banking Movement Investigation System (SIMBA), created to digitalize the exchange of information between the Central Bank of Brazil (BCB), banking institutions, the Judiciary Branch, the Federal Police and the Federal Prosecutor`s Office. Based on SIMBA data, the research calculates the average and median of the time needed to access bank data in federal criminal investigations between 2010 and 2020. Regarding the methodology, the research adopts the monographic procedure, with a methodological objective exploratory and with bibliographic and documentary data collection technique. The calculation of the average and median results from the insertion of statistical formulas on the SIMBA data in Microsoft Excel software program. Thus, the research uses the auxiliary statistical method to analyze data from SIMBA. Based on the result of the quantitative and qualitative analysis of SIMBA data, the conclusion of this Master's Thesis indicates no integral compliance with FATF Recommendations 9, 30 and 31, due to the slowness and difficulty in obtaining financial data by the authorities in charge of criminal prosecution in Brazil. Nenhuma O combate ao crime de lavagem de dinheiro exige o desenvolvimento de mecanismos de coleta e análise de dados bancários, com o fim de rastrear, bloquear e recuperar ativos oriundos de atividades criminosas. Com a finalidade de combater esse crime, em 1990, o Grupo de Ação Financeira contra a Lavagem de Dinheiro e o Financiamento do Terrorismo (GAFI) elaborou um conjunto de 40 recomendações, estabelecendo um padrão internacional de combate à lavagem de capitais. O relatório de avaliação do Brasil elaborado pelo GAFI em 2010 apontou que o Brasil não cumpriria todos os critérios de suas Recomendações 9, 30 e 31. O conteúdo dessas recomendações impõem que o sigilo bancário não constitua obstáculo para o combate da lavagem de dinheiro e do financiamento do terrorismo, prevendo que as autoridades encarregadas da persecução penal devem possuir capacidade de rapidamente identificar, rastrear e bloquear ativos criminosos, bem como poderes para requisitar registros mantidos por instituições financeiras de forma célere. Nesse contexto, a presente Dissertação de Mestrado possui como objetivo geral analisar a forma e o prazo necessários para ter acesso a dados bancários em investigações criminais federais, com a finalidade de verificar o cumprimento pelo sistema penal brasileiro ao teor das Recomendações 9, 30 e 31 do GAFI. Para alcançar esse objetivo, a pesquisa (i) descreve o conceito e as características do crime de lavagem de dinheiro e a sua relação com o sistema financeiro; (ii) analisa o conceito e os fundamentos do sigilo bancário no Brasil; (iii) indica as formas de acesso a informações financeiras em investigações criminais federais; (iv) discorre acerca da natureza jurídica e do conteúdo das Recomendações 9, 30 e 31 do GAFI; e (v) analisa os dados do Sistema de Investigação de Movimentações Bancárias (SIMBA), criado para digitalizar a troca de informações entre Banco Central do Brasil (BCB), instituições bancárias, Poder Judiciário, Polícia Federal e Ministério Público Federal. Com base nos dados do SIMBA, a pesquisa calcula a média e a mediana do tempo necessário para ter acesso a dados bancários em investigações criminais federais no período de 2010 a 2020. Em relação à metodologia, a pesquisa adota o procedimento monográfico, com objetivo metodológico exploratório e com técnica de levantamento de dados bibliográfica e documental. O cálculo da média e da mediana resulta da inserção de fórmulas estatísticas sobre os dados do SIMBA no programa Microsoft Excel. Assim, a pesquisa utiliza o método auxiliar estatístico para análise dos dados do SIMBA. A partir do resultado da análise quantitativa e qualitativa dos dados do SIMBA, a conclusão da Dissertação aponta para o não cumprimento integral das Recomendações 9, 30 e 31 do GAFI, em virtude da lentidão e da dificuldade para obtenção dos dados financeiros por parte das autoridades encarregadas da persecução criminal no Brasil.

- Abstract
• The LASSO and random forests are employed to jointly identify the five key factors affecting AML, which have policy implications for regulatory authorities to optimize the allocation of AML resources under the risk-based approach. • The random forests five-factor (RF-FF) model proposed in this paper has high prediction accuracy and good out-of-sample predictive ability for the MER-AML index. • The time-series national AML index constructed based on the RF-FF model contributes to overcoming the limitations of existing methods for measuring AML systems. This paper proposes a methodology for constructing the national anti-money laundering (AML) index based on Mutual Evaluation reports and machine learning models. We employ LASSO and random forests to jointly identify the key factors affecting AML, which have policy implications for regulatory authorities to optimize the allocation of AML resources. The random forests five-factor (RF-FF) model proposed in this paper has high prediction accuracy (86.31%) and good out-of-sample predictive ability for the MER-AML index, which is significantly better than competing models such as OLS and relaxed LASSO. The time-series national AML index constructed based on the RF-FF model contributes to overcoming the limitations of existing methods, providing fresh perspectives on the measurement of AML systems, and facilitating empirical studies related to evaluating the controversial AML regime.

- Abstract
Professionals such as lawyers, accountants, company secretaries and real estate agents who are under the category of Designated Nonfinancial Business and Professions (DNFBPs) are expected to comply with the requirements of FATF 40+9 Recommendation. FATF recommends that DNFBPs need to comply with five major recommendations (i.e. Recommendations 12, 16,17,20,24 and 25) to combat the prevalence of money laundering and terrorism financing. This includes the need to 1) conduct due diligent on their clients 2) maintain proper records and documentation of related transactions for at least six years; and 3) submit a suspicious transaction report to the Competent Authority, who is in charge of Anti-Money Laundering regime of a country. This study analyses the latest Mutual Evaluation reports of countries within the Asia Pacific Group (APG) to assess the level of compliance of the countries in pursuant to the compliance of DNFBPs and also analyze the characteristics of the compliance rating of the DNFBPs. In general, the findings show low level of compliance for these standards, implicating either lack of awareness or poor enforcement by the regulators. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

В статье рассматриваются актуальные аспекты осуществления контрольно-надзорной деятельности в условиях цифровизации экономической и управленческой деятельности. Обращается внимание на то, что с системных позиций развитие отрасли контрольно-надзорного права, имеющей комплексный характер, призвано способствовать переводу деятельности контрольно-надзорных органов с «карательного» на превентивный подход., The article discusses the relevant aspects of the implementation of control and supervision activities in the context of digitalization of economic and management activities. Attention is drawn to the fact that from a systemic standpoint, the development of the branch of control and supervisory law, which is of a complex nature, is designed to facilitate the transfer of the activities of control and supervisory bodies from a "punitive" to a preventive approach., СОВРЕМЕННОЕ ПРАВО, Выпуск 12 2020, Pages 70-74
