National Crime Agency

The National Crime Agency (NCA) is a UK law enforcement agency tasked with tackling serious and organized crime, such as drug trafficking, human trafficking, cybercrime, and financial crime. Established in 2013, the NCA works alongside local police forces and international partners to disrupt criminal networks and protect the public. It uses intelligence and investigatory powers to investigate complex crimes, support local efforts, and share information across borders. By coordinating efforts, the NCA aims to enhance the overall safety and security of the UK against high-level criminal threats.
