How effective is anti-corruption guidance and education in preventing corruption?
Background
To effectively respond to and tackle economic crime, it is important to ensure that government policy and law enforcement activity is having the desired impact. Only through reviewing our responses and understanding ‘what works’ can we seek to adapt and close vulnerabilities and strengthen our response.
Further research on ‘what works’ for economic crime could consider how best to assess ‘what works’ in preventing and disrupting economic crime, particularly given the challenges presented by the hidden nature of the crime types involved. This section also includes some questions that are relevant across all the crime types, as similar questions applying a cross-cutting approach may be of particular value here.
