In the first five months of the year, the Guardia di Finanza ascertained damages to the Treasury for 957 million euros and recovered almost 5,5 billion in terms of international tax evasion. This is what can be read in a statement from the Fiamme Gialle, which on the occasion of the 239th anniversary of the foundation of the Corps, drew up the balance of these five months of activity.
286 perpetrators of "carousel fraud" who evaded VAT for 317 million were also reported. The financiers have also identified over 4 billion euros "subject to laundering or illicit transfer, in cash and securities, to and from abroad". “Furthermore, 2.417 perpetrators of banking, financial, corporate and bankruptcy crimes were reported together with 223 usurers, 31 of whom were arrested”. On the organized crime front, the Gdf has seized assets worth over 2,49 billion.
