Economic crime has been an important field for political initiatives during thelast forty years. This article explores the major trends in legislation and how lawenforcement agencies have been organized. In the 1970s, economic and organized crime were more or less treated as a common problem. The connectionbetween economic and organized crime is still emphasized. Investigative measures from organized crime control are also used to fight economic crime. Intelligence services and wiretapping are new tools against white-collar criminals. Asset recovery and a multidisciplinary approach have improved the cooperationbetween agencies. The Tax Administration, the Enforcement Agency and the Social Insurance Agency have become key players.»New« economic offences have been important on the political agenda: corruption, financial crimes and social benefits fraud. Fraud in general is likely tobe an important criminal problem in the future. Several of the offences which geta lot of attention are not investigated by the Economic Crime Agency. This maycause political initiatives to be focused more narrowly on specific problems likecorruption instead of »economic crime« more generally. |
