Superintendent Castillo emphasized that “enhancing the knowledge of the personnel working in the Judicial Branch, the Public Prosecutor’s Office, and other State entities involved in tasks related to the prevention, detection, investigation, and prosecution of money laundering crimes is crucial for those who uphold justice, transparency, and integrity in the country.”
Through this workshop, attendees will acquire insights into best practices and exchange experiences that will enable them to develop efficient strategies to strengthen their responsibilities related to investigations and communication within the financial sector.
Preventing money laundering predicate offenses is a shared responsibility.
