Interpol has a new tool to track down loot that criminals are stashing away around the world
Interpol says 82 countries using the new alert have uncovered at least $41 million in criminal assets so far.
- Interpol is rolling out the 'Silver Notice,' a new tool allowing its 196 member countries to alert each other when hunting for hidden criminal assets including cash, cryptocurrency, cars, and real estate.
- Criminals have historically managed to keep around 99% of their illegal gains, prompting this alert system trialed since January 2025 to facilitate international police cooperation in tracing and seizing assets across borders.
- Nicholas Court, director of task force coordination at Interpol, reported that 82 countries uncovered at least $41 million in assets, with Brazil locating mafia-linked property for Italy after receiving a silver notice.
- Court said the notice enables officials to broadcast requests for specific assets including 'cars, their boats, their cash, their livestock,' helping ensure illicit money returns to the correct country.
- Member nations are expected to approve full adoption at Interpol's general assembly in Hong Kong this November, marking the first new color-coded notice the organization has introduced in at least 20 years.
