The purpose of the article is to compare the sources of financial and legal regulation of combating illegal assets movement in foreign jurisdictions, analyze judicial and investigatory practice in order to eliminate problems and fill the gaps in legislative regulation of the mechanism of combating illegal assets movement in foreign jurisdictions and their recovery in the financial system of the state.  The main research methods are the method of dialectical scientific cognition based on the set of recognized specific and general scientific methods: formal-logical, which helps to explain legal provisions; comparative-legal, which allows conducting comprehensive analysis, assessment and comparison of various aspects; statistical, including data collection, analysis and generalization; and the method of intersectoral legal analysis, which allows considering legal institutions through the lens of legal branches. The article contains conceptual analysis of the tendencies of international cooperation in the financial and legal sphere; its functional purpose is the prevention of illegal assets movement and their recovery to the country of origin. The scientific novelty of the research consists in the detection of problem aspects of cooperation and the collision of the financial and legal legislation leading to significant socio-economic disparities of financial resources allocation, which, due to the concealment in offshore jurisdictions, lead to the decrease in incomes of budgets of the budgetary system of the Russian Federation and the state’s inability to perform its duties to the population, which are established in national programs. Particularly, the authors arrive at the conclusion about the necessity to strengthen government control over foreign trade operations.

Abstract: The article is devoted to European Police Office (Europol) and their activities in the sphere of crime prevention in the territory of the European Union. Integration of different countries into the European Union has allowed not only to expand  the domestic market but also to eliminate the borders of criminal space. Special attention is paid at the legal grounds of formation and functioning of Europol and practical aspects of interaction with other law enforcement agencies and governmental bodies of the European Union. Each country has a national department linked with Europol which allows to create a unified information network between countries. The heart of Europol is its informatino system which includes analysis cells and strict procedures for information search. By terminting borders between the member states, European Union has allowed to expand the territory of crime but creation of effective European Police Office has proved that the EU is capable of maintaining legal order and security in the countries.
