Integrites has successfully defended the top management and shareholders of GlobalMoney against charges of tax evasion.
GlobalMoney is the operator, developer, and general agent of a leading European payment system. The company has been operating since 2011, and Integrites claims it is "considered a pioneer in e-money paying on Ukrainian market." Its management and shareholders were charged under article 212 of the Ukrainian Criminal Code for tax evasion "in especially large amounts" and assignment, and under article 191 of the Code for waste of property.
According to Integrites, the firm's lawyers "managed to close the criminal proceedings by proving absence of corpus delicti." The acquittal resulted in unblocking the company's business activity and, the firm claimed, "proving the legitimacy of its typical transactions."
Integrites Senior Partner Vyacheslav Korchev obtained the positive result for GlobalMoney, with the support of Counsel Denys Kytsenko and Senior Associate Aleksei Kominarets.
