What are Economic Crimes?
Economic crimes are those that attempt against the economic assets of a person, company or institution, using fraudulent or illegal means to obtain financial benefits. These types of crimes can have serious consequences, including prison sentences, severe fines and economic sanctions. At Soler Martín Abogados, we have a team specialized in the defense of individuals and companies accused of economic crimes.
Main Types of Economic Crimes
Fraud
Fraud is one of the most common economic crimes. It consists of deceiving a person or entity to obtain economic benefits through false or fraudulent means.
Example: Falsifying financial documents to obtain a bank loan.
Money Laundering
Money laundering involves concealing the origin of funds obtained through illicit activities by making them appear legal. This is a serious crime that is often linked to drug trafficking, corruption or tax evasion.
Example: Transferring large sums of money from illegal activities to foreign bank accounts to disguise their origin.
3. Embezzlement
Embezzlement occurs when a person who has access to other people's funds, usually in a position of trust, uses them for his or her own benefit rather than for their intended purpose.
Example: A public official who uses government funds for personal use.
4. Tax Offenses
Tax crimes consist of evading the payment of taxes or deceiving the tax authorities, either by omitting income, submitting false information or using tax havens to hide income.
Example: Underreporting income in a company to pay less taxes to the tax authorities.
Legal Consequences
Economic crimes are usually subject to severe penalties, including fines, seizure of assets, and in the most serious cases, imprisonment. The consequences depend on the type of offense, the amount of money involved and the recurrence of the offense.
