So-called “white-collar crime” includes many separate individual crimes, most often related to the use of deception for financial purposes, such as Ponzi schemes; securities fraud; Tax evasion; and embezzlement. White-collar crime is generated by a hidden power that defines the relationship between business and politics. The liberalization of financial markets and market reforms in Argentina in recent decades have left behind a gradual process of institutional ownership of the state by large economic groups. This appropriation is expressed today by a strong influence of these economic actors on decision-making processes, the implementation of public policies and the distribution of economic and social resources. White-collar crime is usually confused with another term, corruption. There are different definitions of what corruption is. Each definition highlights different dimensions of the phenomenon to be studied and influences the analytical and continuing tasks to be carried out. A first definition focuses on public ethics. Here, corruption is defined as an ethical confusion between public and private space. A second view links the problem of corruption to the lack of transparency of the State, whether in the form of obstacles to access to public information or specific recruitment opportunities for certain companies in the field of goods and services.
However, there is a third definition that we promote as an organisation: corruption is one of the many parts of a more complex and comprehensive criminal phenomenon, namely white-collar crime.

Criminal organizations weaken society because their profits are used to infiltrate or acquire legitimate businesses, thereby bribing individuals and government officials. Over time, this can seriously weaken the moral and ethical backbone and norms of society and undermine the principles that underpin democracy. Nor is it ruled out that criminals could install puppet governments by using the proceeds of crime to manipulate and win elections. At the national level, the most important legislation governing white-collar crime is Chapter 9 of the Penal Code of the Laws of Malta, which punishes proceeds obtained or obtained directly or indirectly from the commission of the crime.

Within the same unit, there are also two other squads that perform similar tasks, namely money laundering and the National Counterfeiting Bureau.
