The Economic Crime Levy raised £92 million in its first year of collection (2022/23). As the Levy is collected a year in arrears, the total Levy revenue for financial year 2023/24 has not yet been confirmed.<\/p>
<\/p>
Prior to the Levy\u2019s implementation, the Office for Budgetary Responsibility (OBR) forecast that the Levy would raise £100m/year. This can be found on the OBR\u2019s website under \u2018supplementary fiscal tables: receipts and other<\/a>\u2019 - https://obr.uk/efo/economic-and-fiscal-outlook-march-2022/<\/a>.<\/p> <\/p> At Spring Budget 2024, the Chancellor increased the Levy fee for firms with revenue greater than £1 billion, to ensure we can continue to sustainably fund the government\u2019s commitments to tackle economic crime.<\/p>"}
