Following the multi-billion EURO financial fraud and misconduct schemes of Enron, WorldCom and Tyco International, the Parmalat scandal at the end of 2003 showed that economic crime of this magnitude is also possible in Europe. In view of increasing concern of the cost and damage of economic crime for European societies, the Council of Europe – in cooperation with the Ministry of Justice of Portugal – will organise an Octopus Interface Conference on “Combating Economic Crime”.Background - “Economic crime has been of major concern to European societies for decades, and already in 1981 the Council of Europe adopted a Recommendation - Recommendation R(81)12 on Economic Crime adopted by the Committee of Ministers on 25 June 1981 - listing 16 specific and non-specific offences as economic crimes. The recommendation is based on the assumption that economic crime has adverse impact beyond individual victims and the material damage in that (a) it affects large number of persons, society and the state in general, (b) it damages the functioning of the national or international economy, and (c) it causes loss of trust and confidence in the economic system. The acceleration of economic globalisation since the 1980s based on the integration of global financial markets and free-market strategy (fiscal austerity, privatisation, market liberalisation and reduction of trade barriers) multiplied the opportunities for economic crime in Europe. In European ‘states in transition’ the opportunities are related to privatisation, the exploitation and export of raw materials, and emerging financial and banking sectors, accompanied by capital flight, tax evasion, corruption, money laundering and organised crime. Following the multi-billion EURO financial fraud and misconduct schemes of Enron, WorldCom and Tyco International, the Parmalat scandal at the end of 2003 showed that economic crime of this magnitude is also possible in Europe. In any event, the turnover of economic crime is believed to dwarf the cost and damage of ordinary crime. An increasing number of European countries report on different forms of economic crime in their assessment of the organised crime situation. Economic crime and organised crime appear to be linked in particular with regard to value added tax fraud, public procurement, privatisation, counterfeiting of commercial products, investment fraud, environmental crime, and fraud against the European Union’s financial interests. Economic crime is thus one of the main markets of organised crime. Furthermore, corruption in its various forms (embezzlement, kickbacks, conflicts of interests, trading in influence etc.) appears to be frequent pattern when serious cases are uncovered by the judicial authorities, the media and other watchdogs. It goes without saying that illegal profits need to be dissimulated, which makes money laundering also closely related to different forms of economic crime. As the issue of economic crime cuts across different topics and range of different stakeholders, it has been decided to dedicate an Octopus Interface conference to this question.”
