THE CRIME OF MONEY LAUNDERING AS A TOOL IN COMBATING ORGANIZED CRIME: A TURKISH LAW PERSPECTIVE VERSUS THE FINANCIAL ACTION TASK FORCE’S VIEW

Öz

Türkiye faces significant money laundering and terrorist financing risks because of its geographic location as the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering (FATF) emphasizes frequently. Indeed, penalization of money laundering as a tool to combat organized crime for the first time appeared as an international demand and even pressure on Turkish law just as many other jurisdictions. As such, punishing the acts of money laundering is always confronted by various principles in the Turkish law, but most particularly by the legality principle. Further, money laundering appears as a contemporary type of crime for the Turkish law. Considering money laundering plays a pivotal role in combatting organized crime, a strong necessity for an effective national law which is in compliance with the international conventions exist. This study, therefore, aims to compare the Turkish criminal law perspective with the FATF’s views. Such being the case, firstly it provides some insight into historical developments in Türkiye, e.g., main impulses leading to criminalization of the transactions of the proceeds of crime. Then it outlines when and how money laundering occurs as a criminal act pursuant to the Turkish Penal Code in 2005, with a particular focus on the FATF’s critics and recommendations (Mutual Evaluation in 2019 and Follow-Up Report 2023) on Türkiye’s case on the matter.
