In the United States, there is a multiple increase in denunciations of sanctions violators

According to the results of the first three weeks of this year, the US Treasury Department received over a hundred denunciations from informants about what schemes banks come up with to circumvent anti-Russian sanctions. For comparison, the department has received the same number of denunciations over the past two years.

According to Bloomberg, the number of denunciations increased after the law on remuneration for those who report such crimes was approved in the United States at the end of December last year.

The program of denunciations to circumvent sanctions has been operating in the United States for two years. However, informants have not previously received remuneration for this. According to the agency, informants are promised up to 30% of the collected money based on the detected violation. The minimum remuneration will be 10%.
