Economic crimes are growing in number, complexity and reach, making them increasingly difficult to investigate and prosecute in Latvia. Transnational organised crime has been identified as a critical risk in the National Risk Assessments of many OECD countries, and how to counter illicit economic activities is part of the OECD work programme on risk management and resilience. These crimes are perceived to have a significant impact on Latvia’s economy as well as on the security of citizens and of society as a whole. The Latvian State Police and criminal justice system (CJS) more broadly are actively involved in on-going policy reform and institutional changes to address these challenges.
