The last three decades have seen the dramatic globalization of organized crime and corruption, now totaling trillions every year. An offshore-enabled criminal services industry—Western banks, law firms, registration agents, visa peddlers, hedge funds and lobbyists—has allowed corrupt actors to easily loot, launder, and hide stolen money in safe havens for future legitimate use. This unprecedented transfer of wealth and nexus of high-level corruption and organized crime has accelerated the rise of global inequality, devastated livelihoods, and contributed to the decline of democratic institutions all over the world.
The Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP) believes it takes a network to fight a network. By developing and equipping a global network of investigative journalists and publishing their stories, OCCRP exposes crime and corruption to empower the public to hold power to account. As an investigative reporting platform for an ever-growing worldwide network of independent media reporting centers and journalists, OCCRP is reinventing investigative journalism for the 21st century as a public good. While upholding and instilling the highest journalistic ethics and editorial standards, it develops and deploys cutting-edge tech tools to enable collaborative, secure, data-driven investigations. With OCCRP Aleph, a suite of tools and data powered by in-house developed software, journalists can search and cross-reference more than 1 billion records to trace and expose criminal connections and patterns and efficiently collaborate across borders. The power of Aleph grows as the network expands with new media partners adding their data, furthering OCCRP’s ability to identify and expose illicit activity.
In the face of growing global threats to independent media, OCCRP provides digital and physical security and allows journalists covering the most sensitive material to work in teams with trusted editors rather than working alone. OCCRP also partners with advocacy groups—arming civil society with information to meaningfully press for justice and change—and unearths evidence that enables law enforcement to act. OCCRP sees a future where corruption and organized crime are drastically reduced, and democracy resurges as a result of a more informed citizenry, increased accountability, and sharply higher costs for criminal activity.
