Intro to The Economic and Financial Crime Bureau

The Economic and Financial Crime Bureau (EFCB) is an independent and autonomous law enforcement authority led by the Director who is accountable to the Committee for Home Affairs. It was launched in June 2021 when the Director took over responsibility for economic and financial crime from Bailiwick of Guernsey Law Enforcement. The Director’s mandate is to investigate money laundering, terrorist financing (and other serious economic crimes such as bribery, corruption, fraud and tax evasion), and the identification, tracing and recovery of the proceeds of crime/unlawful conduct in concert with the Law Officers of the Crown.

EFCB is seeking expressions of interest from Economic & Financial Crime Investigators, Disclosure Officers, Investigation Lawyers and Police Constables interested in working in economic crime.
