Welcome to our website. We are the
Scottish Business Crime Centre, Scotland's only national centre
dedicated to tackling crime and anti-social behaviour which affects
businesses and their customers.
Our aim is to reduce the likes of
theft, fraud, shoplifting, deception, pilfering, intellectual
property crime, counterfeiting, hijacking, identity theft, all of
which hit businesses economically. We also support projects to
eliminate inconsiderate conduct such as intimidation, threatening
behaviour and drunkenness which can keep customers away from town
centres, licensed premises, clubs, restaurants etc.
We do this by working in
partnership with law enforcement agencies, the Scottish Government
and the business community and by promoting industry-specific
initiatives, sharing good practice, raising awareness of business
crime impact and providing practical advice.
