Abstract

This research work seeks to understand the role of the intelligence agent in the categorization of money laundering investigations. The research was qualitative in approach, the design was grounded theory and the methods were inductive, analytical and hermeneutic; in addition, as part of the techniques, documents related to the study categories and semi-structured interviews applied to 13 experts were used. The findings show that the role of the intelligence agent is fundamental to effectively combat complex criminal activities of money laundering; this is evidenced in the arduous responsibility that he assumes in the search for information and elements related to this crime. The implementation of the taxonomy helps to classify and order the investigation and the interaction between this method and the intelligence agent provides better results.
