The emergence and development of new financial and information technologies, the integration of national economic systems into the world economy, the expansion of economic ties both at the level of a separate state and at the supranational level significantly facilitate and even ensure the communication of criminals not only on the territory of a separate country, but also its limits. Technical innovations are undoubtedly changing the financial services industry, offering entirely new products aimed at making them easier to access, but new threats and vulnerabilities are emerging for the financial sector, such as cyber-attacks (internet fraud) or account manipulation. The relevance of the research topic is determined by the significant amount of criminal investments penetrating the legal economy, the commission of new criminal offenses, the use of new ways of committing criminal offenses in cyberspace, the involvement of an increasing number of people in criminal activities, the corruption of state officials, including those called fight crime. Money laundering harms the economic security and financial stability of Ukraine. The international nature of this type of criminal offenses complicates the detection and investigation of crimes, thereby creating a "financial basis" for criminal groups (organizations) to carry out illegal, including terrorist, activities. All efforts aimed at combating the legalization of proceeds of crime in cyberspace without creating an effective system to combat this phenomenon do not yield positive results. Therefore, combating the legalization of proceeds obtained through crime requires the study of the origin and ways of spreading this socially dangerous phenomenon, as well as proper legal protection, in accordance with international standards. |
