中国外逃的腐败分子是怎样把巨额财产转移到境外的?央行反洗钱部门一直在进行深入研究。日前,央行网站刊发报告指出,我国腐败分子主要通过八种途径向境外转移资产。
请看《中国日报》的报道:
Corrupt officials and company executives in China
transfer their assets overseas through at least eight channels, according to a report released on Monday by the Anti-Money Laundering Monitoring and Analysis Center set up by the People's Bank of China.
央行反洗钱监测分析中心发布报告称,中国的腐败官员和公司高管通过至少八种途径非法向境外转移财产。
文中的
transfer their assets overseas就是指“向境外转移财产”,也称为
cross-border transfers of ill-gotten gains(越境转移非法所得),被转移的财产就称为
assets transferred overseas。此类非法行为使我国蒙受了巨额损失。
报告中提到的八种途径分别为
smuggling cash(现金走私)、
underground banking services(地下钱庄)、
trade under current accounts(经常项目下的交易形式)、
overseas investment(海外投资)、
credit cards(信用卡工具)、
offshore financial centers(离岸金融中心)、
direct overseas payments(海外直接收受)、
payments to family members or lovers living overseas(通过在境外的特定关系人转移资金)。
