Extortion racketeering has been long pointed out as the defining activity of
organised crime. Although in recent years this
crime has not been among the top listed organised crime threats in the strategic
EU policy documents, it still remains ever present in European countries. The
seriousness of the phenomenon has been recognised at the EU level and the
crime has been listed in a number of EU legal acts in the field of police and
judicial cooperation in criminal matters.
The report Extortion racketeering in the EU: vulnerability factors analyses extortion racketeering forms and practices
in six EU member states. The analysis disentangles the risk and the vulnerability factors for enterprises in two
business sectors – agriculture and hospitality – as well as in the Chinese communities. Drawing on the results
of the analysis, the report suggests new policies for tackling extortion racketeering in the EU. This report
has been produced with the joint efforts of the Center for the Study of Democracy, Instituto de Ciencias
Forenses y de la Seguridad – Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Transcrime – Università Cattolica del Sacro
Cuore di Milano and Vitosha Research and with the support of Guardia Civil in Spain.
