Economic Stability in the Light of Financial Crime

Economic crime creates an environment of instability and insecurity, leading to a loss of confidence in the economic system. When individuals and companies perceive widespread corruption and fraud, it inevitably leads to a decline in economic activity, resulting in economic insecurity in the country. This study aims to analyze the trends of criminal policy in combating economic crime, shedding light on some economic growth indicators in Algeria, and then identifying the effectiveness of criminal policy in achieving economic security. The study concluded by emphasizing that economic security can only be achieved through the adoption of punitive and preventive policies, increasing the vigilance and caution of security agencies, and reducing the escalation of economic crimes. Updating the legislative system and activating legal texts more strongly are necessary steps.
