Cover Story: In order to fight corruption, money laundering, and organized crime, a proposed APUNCAC Beneficial Owner Rule would require financial service personnel to obtain and submit a certification by the valid beneficial owner when covered funds are transacted in amounts exceeding USD 3000. The strategy would create a transaction-level record of assertions by frontmen that a prosecutor can test, eliminate loopholes that allow criminals to escape prosecution in offshore havens, not require proof of a predicate crime or the illicit nature of funds, trigger a chain of witness cooperation, fight organized crime using a domino strategy, and be accomplished via a relatively simple change in domestic laws. The analysis suggests that implementation of the Rule is operationally, legally feasible, and practical. View this paper
