Financial Investigations and Asset Recovery Training in Albania (April 2011)

From 25 to 30 April 2011, experts of the International Centre for Asset Recovery (ICAR) in cooperation with the Council of Europe (CoE) carried out the second interactive financial investigations/asset recovery training programme in Pogradec, Albania. The aim of the programme was to support the School of Magistrates (SoM) and the Police Formation Center (PFC) of Albania in analyzing, investigating and prosecuting bribery and money laundering cases.

17 participants, from SoM and Albanian State Police attended the 5 days training programme.

The core component of the training programme consisted of a practical exercise where the participants had to investigate a simulated corruption case involving both money laundering and asset recovery elements.  In order to be able to complete the exercise participants had to follow different leads and collect relevant pieces of information and/or evidence. All formal lectures given during the training programme served as a basis for the practical exercise, e.g. the participants were taught how to create and maintain an inventory for keeping track of and easily retrieving the documents that they receive during the investigation process.

In addition to these 17 participants, there were 9 new trainer candidates.  They were selected during the first training held in March 2011 in Pogradec, Albania. The function of the new trainers at this second programme was twofold:
•    During the simulated case exercise, they acted as facilitators providing guidance to the groups on best practices in conducting this investigation.  Their activities were supervised by the Basel Institute personnel
•    During the lecture portions of the programme, they observed the presentations knowing that during the third training, they would be responsible for delivering these same lectures.

The next phase of the training programme consisted of a 3-day training programme from 3 to 5 May 2011 for the new trainers in Strasbourg, France.

The training programme is funded by the Council of Europe.
