Dirty money

Income from the black economy (shadow economy), namely all economic activities that do not appear in the statistics of gross domestic product (illegally-earned money, illegal income). – Assets whose ownership results from illegal activities (criminal income; such as from bribery or drug trafficking). – Income that has been withheld from proper tax assessment (untaxed revenues). – Insofar as German citizens maintain black money accounts abroad, the German secret service (Bundesnachrichtendienst; Federal Intelligence Service) uses all means to track them down, as happened in February 2007 with regard to the Principality of Lichtenstein. German authorities also eagerly bought up data carriers with addresses of actual and alleged tax dodgers offered by criminals at the beginning of 2010. In the process, Switzerland was publicly accused of encouraging tax evasion. – See observation note, drug money, secret book, money, dirty, money laundering, Helvetophobia, International Business Company, account disclosure, offshore financial centers, protection money, hush money, underground banking.
