Market Profiles

A market profile is an assessment, continually reviewed and updated, that surveys the criminal market around a particular commodity, such as drugs or stolen vehicles, or of a service, such as prostitution in an area.

It will detail how active the market is, the trends in availability and price of the commodities or services, the key individuals, networks, criminal assets and associated trends in related criminality which are driven by or connected to the criminal market.

The production and maintenance of market profiles demands an investment of resources which requires it to be focused on the problems given priority by the strategic tasking and co-ordination group.
