Common African Position on Asset Recovery (CAPAR)

The Common African Position on Asset Recovery (CAPAR) articulates a continental policy framework for the repatriation of illicitly acquired assets. Adopted by the African Union, it calls for enhanced international cooperation, transparency in asset return, and the implementation of mechanisms to prevent capital flight. CAPAR also prioritizes the use of recovered assets for sustainable development. It is an important reference for governments, legal professionals, anti-corruption bodies, and development finance institutions advocating for asset recovery and restitution.
