The successful partnership between the INL-funded NCSC Financial Crimes Team and criminal justice agencies across the Caribbean was highlighted by INL in remarks at the House Foreign Affairs Committee last week.
INL has provided over $10 million to promote effective justice systems and counter illicit finance networks to disrupt transnational and complex crime in the Caribbean. Caribbean Basin Security Initiative (CBSI)-funded technical assistance increased the use of counter-financial crime measures in the Caribbean, including the passage and implementation of civil asset recovery legislation in six countries. Through this legislation, CBSI partner nations successfully recovered $2.7 million in cash since 2016 with another $3 million cash forfeitures pending, froze $64.5 million in property, and reinvested these assets to strengthen criminal justice sector institutions.
Congratulations to our regional partners. We are proud to report your success!
