“Organised crime is growing.”“Organised crime is seriously affecting economy
“We have arrested the prime suspect.”“Thousands of counterfeited goods have been confiscated.”“We have frozen the assets of the organisation

A. Knowing and understanding the threat of organised crime (1)
Traditional reports on (organised) crime do not provide the information needed
› No indication of risk/threat
› Not future oriented
› Mainly reporting on law enforcement activity
Organised Crime Situation Reports are to be converted into real threat assessments
Introduction of risk assessment methodologies in oc-reports

a. Prevention of (organised) crime
Organised crime cannot be tackled by repressive action alone
Preventive strategies should focus on the “task environment” and opportunities for organised crime
Society (inadvertently) offers opportunities economic activity: products, services,…
decision making: rules, legislation
![Page 10: Universiteitstraat 4, B-9000 Ghent, Belgium Tom.VanderBeken@UGent.be T +32 (0)9 264 69 39, F +32 (0)9 264 84 93 Prof. Dr. T. Vander Beken](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022072006/56649f4d5503460f94c6def3/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

b. Crime proofing
Crime proofingReducing the opportunities for crime which may be inadvertently created by legislation, products and processes
(Legislative) crime proofing“Testing legislative proposals as regards the crime opportunities they might create.” (Commission 2000 and 2002)“The scanning of loopholes and crime facilitating opportunities …. applied to the legislation making process” (Commission and Europol 2001)
Product (crime) proofingNo EU-definition (“so-called product proofing”) (report on implementation millenniumstrategy, 2003)“Method to scan the probability that a crime occurs due to the nature of the product” (own tentative definition)

c. Vulnerability studiesMAVUS project (Method for and assessment of the vulnerability of
sectors)
Vulnerability studies point out where a sector might be vulnerable for (organised) crime (risk)
Vulnerability assessment based on information about a sector, applied on vulnerability indicators: Sector analysis (description), Environmental scan and cluster analysis, (description), Reference model analysis (description), Width scan (analysis), Depht scan (analysis), Conclusions
Width scan vulnerability indicators refer to nature of the product, threshold, alternative markets, international context
Depth scan vulnerability indicators refer to viability (costs, solvency, …) , corporate culture (business process level).
Link with organised crime report method and crime proofing

4. Opportunities and challenges for the business community
(Organised) crime is not only the government’s business
Economy suffers from (organised) crime, but provides the environment for it as well
Analysis of sector vulnerabilities will prevent (organised) crime
Courage to look at own vulnerabilities (do we want to know?)
Private-public partnership

5. Conclusions
Existing knowledge and approaches towards (organised) crime need to be refined
More attention for prevention by having a closer look at the opportunities (inadvertently) created for organised crime by the legal environment
Knowledge of economic activity, crime situations, crime opportunities
Action taken by policy makers, private sector representatives, law enforcement, academics
