The examination of economic crime in Kosovo is of particular importance because such a form of criminality is on the rise, as a result of the ever-increasing circulation of goods and services at the national and international level. Economic crime is increasingly appearing in various forms, either through the occurrence of numerous abuses in the market of goods and services, "money laundering", corruption, fraud and falsification of documentation on the origin of goods, abusive monopolies created in the market, crimes with electronic money and the involvement of financial institutions with special emphasis on banks and micro-financial institutions in these types of abuses, etc. Kosovo is a state attacked with various forms of economic criminality, where the degree of the "dark number" is quite pronounced as a result of the informal economy that exists in this country. Therefore, the strengthening of institutional mechanisms in the field of prevention and combating this type of criminality is more necessary since the measures taken so far are insufficient to reduce this type of economic criminality. A special role to gain the trust of the public opinion in preventing and fighting this type of criminality is also played by the mass media and non-governmental organizations, which should be created a greater scope of action in order to prevent economic abuses.
