Global Ledger at OSCE Workshop in Kazakhstan: Key Insights

Key highlights from OSCE’s Astana workshop on “Virtual Assets Investigations and Asset Recovery: International Standards and Good Practices”.

Global Ledger joined the OSCE workshop on “Virtual Assets Investigations and Asset Recovery: International Standards and Good Practices” in Astana, Kazakhstan — a program co-hosted with the Asset Recovery Committee under the Prosecutor General’s Office of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

About the workshop

The two-day event gathered prosecutors and law enforcement officers from the General Prosecutor’s Office, territorial branches, and the Asset Recovery Committee, focusing on enhancing capabilities in investigating crimes involving virtual assets.

Led by international experts, the sessions combined global AML/CFT standards with practical exercises, real case studies, and peer-to-peer knowledge exchange.

Our research team had the pleasure of co-facilitating a workshop in Kazakhstan for local prosecutors and law enforcement as part of our support for our partner, Recoveris. We’re bringing back some key insights from the event.

Final thoughts

The OSCE workshop in Astana reinforced the growing importance of combining international best practices with advanced analytical tools to address virtual asset-related crimes. For our team, it was an opportunity to empower investigators with technology that makes tracing, reporting, and asset recovery more efficient and evidence-ready.

Global Ledger provides a visual blockchain investigation tool that helps law enforcement teams close cases 80% faster and build court-ready reports with attribution-verified blockchain data. See how it works during the demo.
