Legal implications of efficient collaboration in Money Laundering cases.

Abstract

The research focuses on the legal implications of effective cooperation in money laundering cases, especially with regard to the purpose and proportionality of penalties according to the Comprehensive Organic Penal Code. Although effective cooperation has been studied from various angles, its impact on the purpose of sentences and the proportionality of sanctions in the context of money laundering, in relation to the Constitution of Ecuador, has not been sufficiently explored. This study seeks a critical evaluation of the benefits that the Prosecutor's Office obtains through effective cooperation as a tool to dismantle criminal organizations and reduce the sentences of informants.
