This document presents the implementation of the Reform Agenda step aimed at strengthening the fight against corruption and organised crime by improving the quality of investigations, prosecutions, final court judgments, asset seizures and confiscations, in line with European Union standards. Data from the EU Organised Crime and Corruption Track Record (OCCTR) platform demonstrate sustained progress in investigations and convictions related to corruption, including high-level corruption, money laundering and organised crime.
The reform has been supported by strengthened institutional capacities within the Special Prosecution Office against Corruption and Organised Crime (SPAK), the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI), the General Prosecutor’s Office and the State Police, together with expanded specialised financial investigation and criminal analysis structures, modern information systems, enhanced international cooperation and continuous professional training. Improved results in criminal investigations, asset recovery and international cooperation reinforce the rule of law and enhance Albania’s effectiveness in combating corruption and organised crime.
