The Human Cost of Deception: Economic Crime as a Public Harm in Ireland 

The 12th annual Irish Criminal Justice Agencies Conference on the theme of economic crime will take place on Friday, October 9th 2026 in the Revenue Commissioners Building, An Lár, O’Connell Street.

This event will examine the evolving nature of economic crime in Ireland and the policy, institutional and societal challenges it presents. Participants will be encouraged to reframe economic crime as a public harm issue, with significant implications for social cohesion and trust in institutions, as opposed to a niche “white-collar” or financial sector concern.
