Directive (EU) 2024/1260 could shift Europe’s response to organised crime if prevention becomes the guiding objective rather than mere technical compliance.

Administrative measures can disrupt networks before prosecution. Social economy policies can close the spaces they exploit. But risk recognition, action, and prevention remain disconnected. The problem isn’t missing tools — it’s missing alignment. #PREVENT #OrganisedCrime #CrimePrevention #EUPolicy

A new PREVENT study shows how administrative tools can prevent infiltration earlier — by denying licences and subsidies, sharing information and disrupting criminal business models across six EU Member States.

Organised crime is still missing from Europe’s “risk picture”. Our PREVENT review of 18 EU countries shows 8 do not include it in their national risk assessments at all. That gap has real consequences for prevention and resources. #PREVENT #OrganisedCrime #RiskAssessment

at #EUROCRIM2025, PREVENT partners joined the session on high-risk criminal networks — exploring how to identify them systematically, how they infiltrate local economies, and which administrative measures can limit their influence. Congratulations to all speakers! #OrganisedCrime #Criminology
