Abstract

In the past decade the incidence of international crime has increased. As Louis Freeh, director of the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has stated, ‘grave crime is no longer bound by the constraints of borders’. As such crimes are not limited by state boundaries — approaching them on an international level is crucial. Thus, there has been an increased demand for the globalisation of efforts by law enforcement agencies to halt the rise in business and financially related crimes such as money laundering, tax fraud, securities fraud, intellectual property thefts, extortion, anti‐trust violations, computer crime, corrupt business practices and racketeering and combat violent crimes, terrorism, alien smuggling and drug trafficking.
