Abstract: Financial crimes refer to illegal acts committed by individuals or groups for financial or professional gain. Following the analysis carried out in this article, we noticed a very close connection between the number of newly investigated cases and the number of ongoing investigations from previous years, which denotes the maintenance of a high level of economic crime in general. At the same time, a very close connection can be observed between the total number of investigated cases and the number of coordination meetings; from here we can conclude that the frequency of these meetings is dictated by the high number of economic crime cases present at the EU level. Another strong connection that we can observe is the one between the number of coordination meetings and the number of joint investigation teams formed at the EU level, which shows a concentration of forces at the EU level to combat economic crime.
