RRE Categories in Scope

RRE content is organised into six core categories plus one auxiliary legacy category. Each subcategory has its own qualifying criteria, and some carry a financial threshold. Across every category, the baseline requirement is the same: the subject must be wanted, charged, indicted, prosecuted, convicted, or sentenced, evidenced by an official source or by media reporting on official action.

1. Terrorism

No financial threshold. Assessed qualitatively.

Subcategory	What qualifies
1.1 Proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction	Proceedings in relation to international terrorism
1.2 Terrorist Financing and Support	Proceedings in relation to international terrorism
1.3 Violent Crimes with Terrorist Connection	Proceedings for participation in violent crimes with an established terrorist connection

Domestic terrorism is excluded. So are violent crimes such as mass shootings and hate crimes, unless there is evidence of a terrorist connection.

2. Organised Crime

No financial threshold. Assessed qualitatively.

Subcategory	What qualifies
2.1 Traffic and Distribution of Narcotics	Organised drug trafficking where the crime involves three or more perpetrators, or the volume of proceeds indicates criminal organisation
2.2 Illicit Arms Trafficking	Organised arms trafficking under the same criteria
2.3 Smuggling or Illicit Trafficking in Goods	Organised goods trafficking and smuggling under the same criteria
2.4 OCGs and Gangs	Proceedings relating to affiliation with a known criminal group, or criminal activity in collusion between two or more entities, or generating large proceeds

3. Modern Slavery

No financial threshold. Assessed qualitatively.

Subcategory	What qualifies
3.1 Human Trafficking and Exploitation	Proceedings for trafficking of humans by an organised criminal group, or by one or two perpetrators using coercion or deceit and involving movement of the victims
3.2 Labour Trafficking and Exploitation	As above, in a labour context
3.3 Sex Trafficking and Exploitation	As above, in a sexual exploitation context

4. Financial Crime and Fraud

This is the category where thresholds bite hardest — nearly every subcategory carries one.

Subcategory	Threshold	What qualifies
4.1 Financial and Non-Financial Fraud	USD 10,000	Criminal, corporate or commercial fraud generating over USD 10,000 in proceeds, or defrauding victims by USD 10,000 or more
4.2 Money Laundering	USD 10,000	Laundering of criminal proceeds valued at or above USD 10,000, by individuals or companies
4.3 Tax Offences	USD 10,000	Tax crimes with proceeds valued at or above USD 10,000
4.4 Embezzlement	USD 10,000	Embezzlement of assets valued at or above USD 10,000
4.5 Counterfeiting of Currency	USD 10,000	Counterfeiting of USD 10,000 or above
4.6 High-Value Theft and Robbery	USD 10,000	Theft and robbery generating proceeds valued at or above USD 10,000
4.7 Insider Trading	USD 10,000	Insider trading and market manipulation at or above the threshold
4.8 Unexplained Wealth	GBP 50,000	Proceedings relating to wealth that cannot be accounted for, at or above GBP 50,000
4.9 Failure to Comply with Relevant Financial Regulations	USD 10,000	Proceedings for non-compliance with financial regulations at or above the threshold

Thresholds are given in USD or the equivalent in another currency. Where the reporting contains no financial figure, relevance is judged on additional factors instead — organised crime, terrorism, modern slavery, financial crime and fraud, bribery and corruption, or cybercrime indicators.

The USD 10,000 figure can look low. It is a prioritisation floor, not the only test — the qualitative criteria still apply, and a case that clears the number but fails those criteria is not captured.

5. Bribery and Corruption

No financial threshold. Assessed qualitatively.

Subcategory	What qualifies
5.1 Being Bribed	Proceedings for accepting a bribe
5.2 Bribing Another Person	Proceedings for offering or giving a bribe
5.3 Bribing a Foreign Public Official	Proceedings for bribery of an official in another jurisdiction
5.4 Failure of a Relevant Commercial Organisation to Prevent Bribery	Proceedings against an organisation for failing to prevent bribery
5.5 Corrupt Practices	Proceedings for corrupt conduct not covered by the subcategories above

6. Cybercrime

Subcategory	Threshold	What qualifies
6.1 Identity Theft	—	Proceedings or regulatory action for identity theft
6.2 Scams	USD 10,000	Scams generating over USD 10,000
6.3 Hacking	—	Proceedings or regulatory action for failure to prevent a data breach, or for participation in cyber-attacks
6.4 Credit Card / Payment Fraud	USD 10,000	Involvement in credit card or payment fraud valued at or above USD 10,000

7. Other Alleged Offences

The auxiliary category, and the only one built on low-credibility evidence: content that would fit categories 1–6 but has no evidence of official action, plus other offence types that are not explicitly out of scope. This category is legacy only. It holds existing profiles created under earlier methodology, and applies to currently out-of-scope crime. New content is not created under it — anything added after January 2020 requires evidence of official action.

Not Listed Does Not Mean Not Covered

The category list describes how content is classified, not an exhaustive list of qualifying crimes. A crime that appears under no explicit category or subcategory is still captured if it predicates money laundering or can be classified under an existing subcategory. Environmental crime is the clearest illustration. It is not a named RRE category, and wildlife crime is explicitly out of scope — yet environmental offences are routinely captured:

Under Terrorism — where a terrorist organisation funds itself through activity such as illicit ivory trafficking, or commits environmental damage as part of its operations.
Under Organised Crime — where organised groups profit from illegal disposal of commercial, industrial or radioactive waste and launder the proceeds.
Under Bribery and Corruption — where an environmental offence generating proceeds was facilitated by bribing public officials. Both the briber and the official are profiled.
Under Financial Crime and Fraud — Money Laundering — where proceeds from an environmental crime are laundered at or above the threshold. This route applies to cases that do not meet the qualitative criteria of any other subcategory; if they do, they are classified there instead.
