Economic Crime
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what progress she has made on implementing the cross-system professional enablers strategy.
Answered by Dan Jarvis
Professional enablers are a critical facilitator of serious and organised crime. In April 2024, the NCA’s National Economic Crime Centre (NECC) launched a cross-system strategy to tackle the threat posed by professional enablers; and steps taken towards that goal since include the following:
- The NECC is working closely with professional body supervisors, statutory supervisors, policing and other system partners to improve information sharing between agencies.
- The NECC is co-chairing the Europol Financial Intelligence Public Private Partnership (EFIPPP) work stream on professional enablers to improve intelligence with international partners.
- Work is underway to create a comprehensive guide on professional enablers that will support operational teams and supervisors.
- And there is further ongoing work to build a stronger evidence base around professional enablers through NCA/NECC research and analysis.
