The assessment of money laundering and terrorist financing risks is conducted at the supranational and national level, including risk factors and risk variables. Based on the mentioned, the accounting profession is required to provide risk assessments at the level of obliged entities, which results in suspicious transactions reports. The number of suspicious transactions reported in the Republic of Croatia, as well in the world, is notably small, which speaks in favor of insufficient awareness of the threats posed by such conduct. The susceptibility of the accounting profession to illegal actions through the possibility of adjusting financial statements within the framework of creative accounting is evident, while due to non-compliance with legal regulations, unprofessionalism, and unethical needs, there is a need for forensic accounting. The peculiarities of the accounting profession support its ambiguous role in the detection of money laundering and other illegal activities, however, such measures are always implemented a posteriori.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to highlight the need for predictive intelligence to support anti-money laundering programs in the financial sector. Design/methodology/approach The methodology adopted herein consists of a literature review on the use of intelligence in anti-money laundering, the sources of intelligence and information used in the financial sector, supported by experience gained from investigating and prosecuting money laundering cases, and the assistance provided to financial services companies. Findings Banks and other regulated services are required to meet international standards to deny services to criminals and terrorists, identify suspicious activity and report to the authorities. Regulated businesses have large operations which check customers against sources that confirm their identity or against lists of proscribed or suspected offenders at an individual or national level. Their controls tend to look backwards when other organisations that rely on intelligence, such as the military, value predictive, forward-looking intelligence. The penalties that banks and others face for failure in their controls are increasingly severe, as looking backwards and not forwards reduces the extent to which the controls meet their purpose of reducing the impact of organized crime and terrorism. Originality/value This paper serves as a useful guide to alert and educate anti-money laundering professionals, law enforcement and policy makers of the importance of predictive intelligence in countering organized crime and terrorism. It also considers whether lessons in intelligence handling from other areas can inform a debate on how intelligence can be developed to counter money laundering.

New Measures for the Prevention of Money Laundering Money laundering poses serious threats to international and national security. The past three decades have been marked by intense efforts to combat the crime. Prevention measures that engage a wide range of reporting entities have become increasingly important in this re-spect. The need for more effective prevention of money laundering has led to periodic changes in the regulatory framework. The article focuses on the latest measures for money laundering prevention that were introduced with the adoption of two new directives by the European Parliament and the Council of Europe in 2015 and 2018 respectively, as well as an entirely new legal framework introduced in Bulgaria in 2018 and its follow-up amendments at the end of 2019. The article analyzes various aspects of the crime and the evolution of the counteracting approaches, highlighting major elements of the most recent measures for the prevention of money laundering on a European level and a national level.

Today, in the context of crisis, many managers of large corporations seek to protect their financial investments by their legalization and further withdrawal into the offshore zone. In the recent decade in many countries the problems of combating economic crimes related to money laundering are solved at the national level. The article highlights the need to improve legislation and strengthen activities in this direction.The authors consider different possible schemes of money laundering, participating of credit and financial institutions in such schemes being a unifying factor. Lack of governmental controls over legality of financial transactions, absence of precise criteria resulted in working out the Multilateral agreement of Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) on cooperation between the competent authorities on the problems of automatic information exchange, which is the part of OECD Standard about automatic exchange of financial information. Adoption of OESD Standard by Russia leads to increased complexity and insecurity of operations of certain credit and financial organizations, but will make the procedure of provision of account information more transparent eliminating possibility to dodge taxes by money laundering for businesses.
