Abstract

This article describes an extensive audit of the work of government agencies against business crime in Sweden, as an example of a performance evaluation by an auditing institution. Business crime was shown to be a major and growing social problem. Manifold measures are required, and these must be directed and coordinated by the Government and the Riksdag. The cooperation of the commercial sector is also needed. The investigation was made by the Parliamentary Auditors of Sweden, which is the smaller of the two auditing institutions in the country. The method used in the investigation can be described as an “interactive” one. The intention was to create a thorough understanding of the issue and a shared approach to the problem. This aim seems to have been achieved to a great extent.
