| Summary |
Whether as a means of gathering valuable building-block financial intelligence, supporting a strong evidential case for prosecution, or a tool for predicting future activity and movements, this paper makes the case for the wider use of financial investigation techniques in the fight against serious and organised crime. Currently, both the scope and value of these techniques is frequently misunderstood and underestimated by being assigned solely as a tool for tackling 'financial crimes' (such as money laundering, fraud and corruption) or as a route to asset recovery, while undervaluing their role in the broader policing response to serious and organised crime1 more generally |
