Hence, the drive and design for impact is built in our research from the start. Furthermore, we provide opportunities for early career academics and our PGRs in these endeavours for their respective personal development and exposure to advanced, comparative and international / collaborative research. The quality, relevance and demonstrable impact of our research are demonstrated not only by our publications but also by the external funding we have gained from prestigious organisations including ESRC, H2020, EU HERCULE. An EU funded - a three year - ongoing project, PROTAX, has already produced evidence of impact in a number of countries. Equally, our work for the City of London Police inform staff development programme on fraud investigation methods and enhance the competence of law enforcement agencies.
