Our Mission

KLEPTOKRATS is a specialized intelligence platform dedicated to tracking kleptocracy, sanctions enforcement, illicit financial flows, and stolen asset recovery worldwide. We provide rigorous, data-driven analysis for policymakers, compliance professionals, investigative journalists, and civil society organizations working to combat grand corruption.

What We Cover

Our coverage spans the full spectrum of kleptocracy-related intelligence:

  • Sanctions Enforcement: Tracking Global Magnitsky Act designations, OFAC actions, EU restrictive measures, and UK sanctions across all jurisdictions
  • Asset Seizures: Monitoring the global campaign to identify, freeze, and seize assets linked to corrupt officials and their networks
  • Illicit Financial Flows: Analyzing the channels through which stolen wealth moves across borders, from shell companies to cryptocurrency
  • Whistleblower Protection: Evaluating the legal frameworks that protect those who expose corruption, from the SEC program to the EU Directive
  • Transparency Indices: Tracking Transparency International’s Corruption Perceptions Index, FATF evaluations, and Basel AML Index scores

Editorial Standards

All analysis published on KLEPTOKRATS is based on publicly available information, including government sanctions lists, court filings, corporate registries, financial disclosures, and reports from established investigative organizations such as OCCRP, ICIJ, and Global Witness. We do not publish unverified allegations.
