Economic Crime Group
Description
The Economic Crime Research Group (ECRG) brings together a diverse body of economic criminologists from the School of Criminology and Criminal Justice.
Economic criminology at its simplest is the study of financially motivated economic crimes. This includes fraud, corruption, bribery, money laundering, terrorist financing, cartels, economic cybercrime, economic and industrial espionage, intellectual property crime, and deviant acts perpetrated by individuals or organisations against individuals or organisations.
This group aims to generate knowledge that will reduce the harm of these crimes and deviant acts, improving the response to them as well as wider questions concerning power relations and the application of relevant theory. The group covers the following themes:
- Counter-economic crime strategies
- Economic crime measurement
- Economic crime offenders
- Preventing economic crime and corporate compliance
- Sanctions against economic crime criminals
- Security, terrorism, and political violence
- Training and education related to economic crime
- Victims of economic crime
