    • 10 Year Anniversary of the UK’s Public Private Partnerships

      UK Government

      This year marks 10 years since the launch of the Joint Money Laundering Intelligence Taskforce (JMLIT). Piloted in 2015, JMLIT was an innovative project co-developed by the National Crime Agency, Home Office, City of London Police, UK Finance and a small number of financial institutions. It was designed to establish an active partnership between government and industry. The JMLIT pilot was considered remarkably forward-thinking - no comparative initiative existed in any equivalent country, or against any other serious and organised crime type. It introduced a novel approach to cross-sector partnership in which the public and private sector could exchange, analyse and disseminate information and intelligence to detect, prevent and disrupt economic crime, on a scale not previously attempted.

    • EU approves strongest sanctions packages against Russia to date

      "We are standing firm. The EU just approved one of its strongest sanctions package against Russia to date. We’re cutting the Kremlin’s war budget further, going after 105 more shadow fleet ships, their enablers, and limiting Russian banks’ access to funding. Nord Steam pipelines will be banned. A lower price cap. We are putting more pressure on Russia's military industry, China's banks that enables sanctions evasion, and blocking tech exports used in drones." Kaja Kallas Vice-President of the European Commission
