Abstract(s)
O Branqueamento de Capitais é o resultado do processo crescente de globalização, e influencia todos os sectores de actividade, em particular o sector financeiro, que pelas suas características é um alvo preferencial para os indivíduos que pretendem tornar lícitos fundos obtidos a partir de actividades ilícitas.
A presente dissertação centra-se no aprofundamento de questões relacionadas com o Branqueamento de Capitais, desenvolvendo em particular a sua influência no Sector Bancário. Tem por objectivo analisar de que forma este sector pode prevenir e limitar os riscos associados a esta actividade ilegal, e também como é influenciado por aspectos económicos, legais, e pela própria conjuntura internacional.
Nesta dissertação verificar-se-á que o Branqueamento de Capitais é uma espécie de efeito colateral do processo de globalização, da liberalização das trocas internacionais e dos movimentos de capitais, da abertura dos mercados financeiros, da maciça informatização e do desenvolvimento do comércio electrónico.
A conclusão baseia-se numa reflexão sobre a necessidade das instituições bancárias manterem as suas políticas de prevenção actualizadas. É também necessário desenvolver novas técnicas de prevenção, supervisão e repressão junto de todas as instituições sejam, elas privadas ou públicas.
Money laundering is the result of the growing process of globalisation, and influences all sectors of business, in particular the financial sector, whose characteristics make it a prime target for people seeking to turn dirty money obtained from illegal activities, into clean, legal money. This dissertation focuses on the exploration of issues related to Money Laundering, which is expanding its influence in the banking sector in particular. It aims to analyse how this sector can prevent and limit the risks associated with this illegal activity, and also how it is influenced by legal, economic aspects, and by the international environment itself. In this dissertation we will see that Money Laundering is a kind of side effect of the globalisation process, the liberalising of international trade, the free movement of capital, the opening up of financial markets and large-scale computerisation and e-commerce. The conclusion is based on thoughts on the need for banking institutions to keep their policies on prevention updated. It is also necessary for all institutions, whether public or private, to develop new techniques for prevention, scrutiny and enforcement.
