NOW-fraud identified thanks to reporting

During the corona pandemic, the so-called NOW regulation provided financial compensation for Dutch companies with substantial loss of revenue. The government support was specifically intended for paying salaries and keeping staff employed. Through reports of banks and notaries we identified several cases of misuse of the NOW regulation. In this combined case study, you can read about our efforts and findings.

Intermediaries, straw owners and shell companies

Criminals use various methods for money laundering. Especially shell companies and companies set up by straw owners are popular. These arrangements are often set up by intermediaries, leaving the real instigators out of sight. Reports of unusual transactions help us trace illegal financial structures.
