During the operation of the expert workshop on financial investigations, which was attended by prosecutors and expert staff of the Prosecutor’s Office of BiH, experiences were exchanged with UK counterparts who also worked on financial investigations.

At the expert workshop, there was discussion about challenges in financial investigations, experiences in conducting this kind of investigations, case studies, as well as lessons learned and challenges in experiences in BiH and the UK.

The UK counterparts and prosecutors and staff of the Prosecutor’s Office of BiH presented case studies as presenters.

The expert workshop is being organised within the Support Project for the High Judicial and Prosecutorial Council and the Prosecutor’s Office of BiH, which is supported by the UK Embassy to BiH.
