This comprehensive work covers the expanding law and practice of asset recovery in the UK, European, and international spheres, and is designed for practitioners involved in investigations and legal proceedings for the recovery of the proceeds of crime (including terrorism).The work covers the three areas of recovery instigated by law enforcement agencies: (1) criminal confiscation in the criminal courts; (2) civil recovery in the civil courts; and (3) taxation by administrative proceedings and on appeal to the courts.

It also provides in-depth analysis of money laundering and terrorist financing offences, plus detailed procedural coverage of compensation, restitution and forfeiture procedures and orders in the criminal courts.The new edition has also been expanded to provide increased procedural guidance (with precedents); extended comparative coverage; and new coverage of terrorist property forfeiture.
