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.
