ABSTRACT

This book belongs to the planning school of strategy, where strategy is documented as a plan. Planning represents the extent to which decision makers look into the future and use formal planning methodologies. As illustrated in this book, intelligence can provide the basis for opening a new criminal case, it can be applied to the investigation of existing criminal cases, it can be used to reallocate investigative resources based on new crime patterns and actors, and it can be used for preventive measures. Theory allows analysts to understand and predict outcomes on a probabilistic basis. Market integrity theory is concerned with the integrity of capital markets. The concept of market integrity tends to imply many statements, such as low levels of crime, efficiency in law enforcement, fairness in competitive markets. A strategy to combat insurance fraud represents a coordinated effort at tackling the menace of fraud in the insurance industry.
