Recommendation 6

6 Paragraph: 47

Spending on economic crime needs to be sufficient to meet the challenge.

Conclusion
Spending on economic crime needs to be sufficient to meet the challenge. The Economic Crime Levy is intended to bring in a useful amount of additional funding to support the fight against economic crime. We welcome the design of the Levy, as it is simple and excludes the vast majority of regulated businesses. However, spending on anti-money laundering should match the need and should not be limited by the yield of the Levy alone.
