<p>The National Economic Crime Centre (NECC) is part of a new, wider, "whole
system" approach which will deliver a significant improvement in the UK's response
to serious and organised crime. For the first time, the NECC brings together law enforcement
and justice agencies, government departments, regulatory bodies and the private sector
with a shared objective of driving down serious organised economic crime, protecting
the public and safe-guarding the prosperity and reputation of the UK as a financial
centre.</p><p>The NECC was formally launched on 5 November 2018. It includes officers
from the NCA, HM Revenue and Customs, City of London Police, Serious Fraud Office,
Financial Conduct Authority, Crown Prosecution Service and the Home Office. As the
NECC evolves throughout 2019 and beyond it will build wider partnerships across the
public sector, with regulators and the private sector, particularly with those businesses
at risk from economic crime.</p>
