- 📘 New GI ACE research launched We marked the parliamentary launch of The Kleptocratic Enterprise, by @marianizzero.bsky.social, @jheathershaw.bsky.social & Tom Mayne of the University of Essex, which examines the gap between the UK’s anti-corruption ambitions and its asset recovery outcomes. 🧵⬇️
- The paper argues that kleptocracy should be tackled as a networked criminal enterprise - not just a series of isolated offences - and shows how existing UK legal tools are often underused.
- Drawing lessons from organised crime frameworks in other jurisdictions, the authors outline options to strengthen asset recovery, hold enablers accountable, and reinforce the UK’s global leadership on anti-corruption. 🔗 Paper: bit.ly/4qMDRVE 🔗 Project: bit.ly/49QNsFe #AntiCorruption #Kleptocracy
