The Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs of the U.S. Department of State announces an open competition for organizations to submit applications to carry out a project to strengthen Criminal Assets Recovery Agency’s (CARA) role and mandate in coordinating the national assets recovery system.
Project Vision
The project envisions a reinvigorated Moldovan Criminal Assets Recovery Agency that stands at the forefront of international best practices, demonstrating efficiency, coordination, and collaboration in the detection, confiscation, and management of assets acquired through criminal activities. By investing in comprehensive capacity-building measures, both domestically and abroad, the project aspires to position CARA as a leading force in combating organized crime and corruption, fostering a safer and more just society. The successful realization of this intervention will result in a transformed CARA, serving as a beacon of justice and integrity. Moldova will witness a reduction in the prevalence of criminal assets, fostering public trust and confidence in the nation’s commitment to combating organized crime and corruption. The project’s ultimate impact will extend beyond borders, contributing to the broader international effort to create a more secure and resilient global financial system.
Project Goal and Objectives
The primary goal of this project is to empower CARA in its mission to recover assets obtained through criminal means by addressing the aforementioned challenges. The project aims to enhance CARA’s capabilities in detection, confiscation, and management of criminally obtained assets, both within Moldova and across international borders. Furthermore, it seeks to foster improved collaboration with national authorities and international peer bodies to create a more effective and integrated system for national asset recovery. The successful implementation of this project will not only strengthen Moldova’s fight against financial crime but also align CARA’s practices with EU and international standards. The project will also help to advance the U.S. foreign policy objectives and INL strategic goals, in particular: Combat corruption and illicit financing to strengthen democratic institutions, advance rule of law, and reduce transnational crime and its enablers.
