Abstract
Cross-border information exchange became more relevant a few decades ago, when organised crime, moving “in the rhythm of time”4, identified globalisation and the facilitated movement of persons as an opportunity for new criminal markets. It was especially perceived in the EU and the Schengen zone with the establishment of the free movement of persons, goods, capital and services, the abolition of internal borders and the introduction of a single currency in the majority of the Member States. Notwithstanding, these negative side effects have not been led automatically by their antidote – the free movement of investigation and prosecution. Actions of law enforcement, prosecution and judicial authorities remained limited to state territory; this meant a high probability of impunity in the case of transnational crimes.
