Offshore structures are often little understood by onshore authorities. However the reality is that the offshore finance industry is based on well understood rules of law, from the law of trusts and companies to those that apply to cross-border transactions. Anyone dealing with criminal or civil asset recovery cases that involve offshore structures needs to understand these well understood rules and the international context in which they are applied, in addition to the criminal law. These webinars will examine the latest cases that have dealt with these cross-over issues.
