The article analyzes the general aspects of institutional support for the functioning of mechanisms for detecting, investigating and managing assets derived from corruption and other crimes at the international and national levels. The conclusions state that the National Agency of Ukraine for Detection, Investigation and Management of Assets Obtained from Corruption and Other Crimes should not only build a body from scratch, but also on the basis of study and foreign experience, compliance with norms and standards of international activity in relevant fields. , to form the corresponding state policy that is provided by the special Law. ARMA's task is to use international experience and establish cooperation with international organizations to make it within the law so unique in its effectiveness that no one has questions about the appropriateness of its existence.
At the same time, ARMA is fully capable of ensuring the preservation, economic value and sale of relevant assets, as well as their transfer to management in accordance with the Law and the sale of assets confiscated in criminal proceedings. It is obvious that the new asset management system that the agency will create should bring income to the state, and not cause losses and create corruption.References
