ABSTRACT
This chapter outlines the principal efforts of the various international organizations to resolve conflicts and gaps and the means by which some of the issues are likely to be resolved. A great deal has already been accomplished and more must urgently be done to construct a financial enforcement regime to combat money laundering and organized crime. A key issue that will complicate international judicial assistance and cooperation in money-laundering prosecutions and asset forfeiture is the crossover and jurisprudential interaction between international criminal law and international human rights law. The rising international financial enforcement subregime that regulates international money movement reflects the convergence of work by governments and international organizations, especially intergovernmental organizations. Intergovernmental organizations attempt to develop certain components of the anti-money-laundering regime and link them to other organizations and territorial actors. As intergovernmental organizations continue to provide for conventions and/or uniform legislation on anti-money-laundering, many of the gaps and obstacles that arise from conflicts of laws will be resolved.
