الجريمة الأصلية

English translation: Predicate offence

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

Law/Patents - Law (general) / قانون عماني
Arabic term or phrase: الجريمة الأصلية
From the text of the Money Laundering Law, this is Any act constituting a breach of the Law in the Sultanate of Oman that enables its perpetrator to gain criminal proceeds.
I could translate it as Asset Crime, but this is not a recognised term. Is there a recognised term for such crimes - i.e. crimes which yield a material gain.

Very many thanks

Predicate offence
Explanation:
In a legal sense, the term predicate means to base something, such as a fact, statement, or action, on another thing. For instance, a person may agree to give a crate of baseball bats to the local little league, predicated on (or based on) a parent’s withdrawal of a lawsuit. The term is also used in criminal law, as a “predicate offense” is one that is part of a larger criminal offense or scheme. To explore this concept, consider the following predicate definition.
