This book is largely based on the written version of the theme that was presented by the speakers at the III JusCrim Congress entitled Economic and financial crime and the European Public Prosecutor’s Office, organized by JusGov (University of Minho School of Law), in partnership with the Directorate-General for Justice Policy (DGPJ), the Attorney-General’s Office (PGR) and the Centre for Judicial Studies (CEJ), which took place at the University of Minho School of Law on December 13 and 14, 2021. The main aim of the Congress was to create a space for reflection and debate between academia and representatives of different institutions that play an important role in the prevention and prosecution of economic and financial crime, particularly in a cross-border context, against the backdrop of the work of the European Public Prosecutor’s Office, which recently took office on June 1, 2021.

This congress and the texts that are now being published have made it possible, in particular, to make the work of the European Public Prosecutor’s Office more widely known to the legal community and civil society, with a view to contributing to and strengthening this Union body as a symbol of the rule of law in the European Union and the realization of an effective area of freedom, security and justice. A note should be made about the graphic standards of this book: the authors have been given some minimum guidelines for the execution of the texts, while allowing a certain amount of freedom in the way citations are made, in the choice of spelling agreement, in the inclusion of a final bibliography and in the presentation format of the text. The systematization of this book follows the order of the interventions at this Congress. A word of thanks is due to the speakers, both those who are now publishing and those who, for understandable reasons, were unable to do so. A word of thanks also goes to those who attended the III JusCrim Congress, and in considerable numbers.
