About This Book
This book is a retrospective review between 2004 and 2021 on the international corruption network allegedly associated with Venezuelan public assets with the irrefutable, deliberate or involuntary support of offshore financial centers (CFO) or their bankers (BSI, CBH, Crédit Suisse, Davos International, EFG, Gazprombank, HSBC, Julius Bär, Mirabaud, Paribas, Santander, UBS). The analysis focuses on various legal aspects of seventeen multi-jurisdictional case studies (Andorra, Spain, United States, Liechtenstein, Malta, Switzerland and Venezuela) linked to Venezuelan public law entities (BARIVEN, BANDES, FONDEN, Metro de Caracas, PDVSA, National Treasury), Venezuelan public officials and former Venezuelan public officials, their associates and numerous Venezuelan and offshore shell companies (American, Bahamian, Barbadian, British Virgin Islands, Caymanian, Dutch, Greek, Hong Kong, Maltese, Mauritian, Panamanian, Saint Vincent, Spanish, Swiss). Approximately US$ 32 billion have been traced and identified through these case studies, which are mainly investigating the plundering of Venezuela's assets, the embezzlement of public funds, money laundering and corruption of foreign public officials. The work concludes with the adoption of proposals to establish the civil liability of CFOs and the compensation of victims of acts of grand corruption
