## Description

The Serious Fraud Office (SFO) is a specialized prosecuting authority that plays a crucial role in investigating and prosecuting serious fraud, bribery, and corruption cases. As part of the UK criminal justice system, the SFO operates in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland. While focusing on a select number of large economic crime cases, the SFO also targets the financial gains made by criminals through their illegal activities. Additionally, the SFO provides assistance to overseas jurisdictions in their investigations related to fraud, bribery, and corruption. What sets the SFO apart is its unique approach of both investigating and prosecuting cases, enabling lawyers and investigators to collaborate from the outset. Established in 1988 under the Criminal Justice Act, the SFO is supervised by the Attorney General. With a dedicated team of professionals, including investigators, lawyers, forensic accountants, and digital forensics experts, the SFO is committed to upholding the integrity of the UK's financial center and safeguarding the economy.
