3 THE EVOLUTION OF CRIMINAL © fotolia.com Considering the development of serious and organised crime as a whole and the impact of key drivers, today’s criminal markets can be classed in three distinct categories: 1 2 Dynamic or growing criminal markets are expected to develop over the next years. The most dynamic markets are not always the largest. Nonetheless, they challenge law enforcement authorities with quickly evolving modi operandi, new and previously unknown substances or the use of technologies which may only be at a concept stage today. Stable criminal markets are sustained by established criminal activities that rely on tried and tested modi operandi supporting highly profitable business models. Established routes, highly developed modi operandi and continuing demand for illicit commodities in the EU and beyond will mean that these criminal markets will persist and continue to challenge law enforcement authorities. These markets represent the largest share of serious and organised crime in the EU currently and will continue to do so in the future. Synthetic drugs and new psychoactive substances Counterfeiting of goods Cybercrime Environmental crime 34 3 Criminal markets in decline are expected to diminish over time as commodities change or certain criminal tools become less relevant in a digital age.
