The Department Office, which forms part of the Tel Aviv District Attorney’s Office (Taxation and Economics) was established for the purpose of focusing resources and professional capabilities in order to battle money laundering and white collar criminal activity and establish sanctions and behavior norms in this field through tax laws and other relevant legislation.
With the development of the capital market and the lack of adequate enforcement to protect the investing public, the purview of the Department was extended, and it was decided that it alone would handle this area under the Securities Law and other relevant laws, both directly and indirectly.
The Department specializes in handling large, complex and multi-document cases.
