star this property answer text <p>The NCA estimates that there is a realistic possibility that the scale of money laundering impacting on the UK annually is at least in the tens of billions of pounds. The cost to businesses and the public sector from organised fraud is no less than £5.9 billion.</p><p>This Government has launched the new National Economic Crime Centre (NECC), which will deliver a step change in the UK's response to - and impact on - economic crime. For the first time, the NECC brings together enforcement and justice agencies (HM Revenue and Customs, the City of London Police, the National Crime Agency, the Serious Fraud Office and the Crown Prosecution Service), other government departments, regulatory bodies and the private sector with a shared objective of driving down economic crime in the UK. It will leverage a 'whole system' approach to enhance and coordinate our collective capabilities to target, pursue and dismantle the highest harm serious and organised criminals, including corrupt elites. Where appropriate this will include prosecutions.</p><p>This Government launched the new Serious and Organised Crime Strategy on 1 November and will invest at least £48m in 2019/20 in law enforcement capabilities to step up efforts to tackle illicit finance and enhance our overall response to serious and organised crime. These will include additional investment in the multi-agency NECC; increased frontline capacity and capability to tackle fraud; and an uplift in investigative and intelligence assessment capabilities at the National Crime Agency.</p>

star this property answer text <p>The UK's work to promote honest investment in low income and emerging economies will be characterised by high environmental, social and governance standards, including anti-bribery and high transparency standards. It will also support the UK's Clean Green Initiative, including to support energy transition in high emitting economies. All UK Overseas Development Assistance (ODA) will be aligned with the Paris agreement and a high proportion will contribute to the UK's International Climate Finance (ICF) commitment.</p><p>The Foreign Secretary's Department is in close contact with relevant other Government Departments on tackling global financial crime. The Government's public-private Economic Crime Plan, published in 2019, guides Government Departments' work to crack down on dirty money. One strand of the Plan is focused on improving transparency of ownership of corporate structures. Although the Overseas Territories (OTs) and the Crown Dependencies (CDs) already share confidential information on company beneficial ownership and tax information with UK law enforcement bodies under the Exchange of Notes Arrangements, they have also agreed to introduce publicly accessible registers of beneficial ownership. This is a major step forward and will further strengthen the valuable cooperation between the UK and the OTs and CDs.</p><p>More recently at the first US-hosted Summit for Democracy, the Prime Minister confirmed that the UK would focus attention on increasing transparency over the purchase of real estate by overseas legal entities to tackle the exploitation of UK corporate vehicles by criminals.</p>
