The periods the note sets out

  • Up to 180 daysfrom the provisional attachment orderPrevention of Money-laundering Act, 2002, section 5(1)
  • Within 30 daysfrom the attachment, for the complaint to the Adjudicating AuthorityPrevention of Money-laundering Act, 2002, section 5(5)

  • Up to 365 days, or the pendency of proceedingsfrom confirmation of the attachmentPrevention of Money-laundering Act, 2002, section 8(3)(a)

Assumptions

  • The asset is unencumbered and immovable, and its use is preserved while it is attached; only transfer is frozen.
  • The window is the 365 days the note models: 180 days to confirmation, then 185 days to a first appellate hearing. The tool does not change the window.
  • The lost borrowing capacity is costed as the premium on replacement unsecured funding for the year, on the secured borrowing the asset would support.
  • Every rate and amount entered is an assumption. Change the loan to value and the figure moves; the note says the shape does not.

A figure returned here takes no account of the facts of any matter. It is information, not advice.
