The Director of the Greek Authority for the Development of Enterprises (A.A.D.E.), Giorgos Pitsilis, has highlighted the significant expansion of international tax information exchange, particularly in the realm of cryptocurrency. In a recent statement, Pitsilis emphasized that the exchange of tax information has become a crucial tool in the fight against tax evasion and money laundering. The A.A.D.E. has reported that a staggering 171 million accounts and assets totaling 13 trillion euros were exchanged internationally in 2024, underscoring the growing importance of international cooperation in the fight against financial crime.

The A.A.D.E. has also noted the increasing role of the Common Reporting Standard (CRS) in the exchange of tax information, with the standard now covering a wide range of financial assets, including cryptocurrency. This has been a significant development in the fight against tax evasion and money laundering, as it has enabled authorities to track the flow of funds and identify potential areas of concern. The A.A.D.E. has also reported that the exchange of tax information has been a key factor in the successful prosecution of a number of high-profile cases, including those involving the use of cryptocurrency in financial crime.
