Contents of economic crime investigation: (1) Methods of preliminary investigation. In the preliminary investigation, coercive measures that restrict personal and property rights cannot be used. Therefore, how to ascertain some of the facts of the case and prepare for the filing of the case and investigation when the investigation measures are limited is an issue worthy of in-depth discussion. In this regard, some commentators pointed out that in the preliminary investigation, measures should be taken according to the circumstances of the case and the key points should be grasped. It is necessary to follow the trace and determine the nature. It is necessary to find out what is unexpected and take decisive measures. In the preliminary investigation, coercive measures, searches, seizures and other investigative measures cannot be taken, but only general routine investigations can be carried out. Therefore, the investigation work must be strategic to avoid touching the accused and causing his evidence to be destroyed. The following key points should be grasped in the preliminary investigation: the investigation is based on the criminal suspect provided by the clues; the investigation is rapid response and quick resolution; the investigation is mainly based on secret investigation and does not touch the accused as much as possible; fourth, the key points of the investigation work To highlight, start from the link that is easiest to break through; fifth, pay attention to collecting evidence in a timely manner and in accordance with the law; sixth, grasp the opportunity to file a case and carry out investigation in a timely manner. (2) Apprehension of criminal suspects. The arrest of criminal suspects occupies a large proportion in the investigation of economic crime cases, and is also a major difficulty in current economic investigation work. someone suggested. The difficulties in pursuing fugitives can be solved in the following ways: by improving the technical capabilities and work responsibility of the subjects pursuing fugitives; by improving the relevant legal system construction; by strengthening the coordination mechanism for economic investigation and fugitive pursuits; and by incorporating new mechanisms for solving cases and pursuing fugitives. The track of comprehensive management of social security; fifth, increase publicity efforts. The sixth is to implement funds and provide necessary material support; the seventh is to understand the psychological characteristics of economic crime suspects and formulate corresponding countermeasures. Some people believe that the pursuit of fugitives must take advantage of four aspects in order to be truly successful: it is the combination of specialized groups and the advantages of mass work; it is the strengthening of basic work and the advantages of online operations and online pursuits; it is the strengthening of measures to give full play to The advantage of specialized work is to strengthen collaboration between regions and departments. (3) General investigation methods and strategies. The investigation of economic crime cases is more confrontational, and only by adopting correct methods and strategies can we ensure victory over the enemy. Some commentators have conducted preliminary research on the concept and main characteristics of economic crime investigation strategies, and the principles that must be followed. Some commentators believe that when handling economic crime cases, attention should be paid to the review work before filing the case. Seize the identification of documentary evidence or commodities to determine their nature and expand the source of clues; seize financial auditing to verify the flow of the subject of infringement and identify the criminal suspect's means of committing crimes and scope of activities; seize the characteristics of clues such as communications and transportation.

Currently, the investigation methods of various economic crime cases are a hot topic in theoretical circles. In particular, various economic investigation textbooks elaborate on the investigation methods of various types of cases. However, if we carefully examine it, the investigation methods of the various cases discussed are somewhat similar. This reflects that the current economic investigation theory research is still immature, especially in terms of research methods, and lacks the support of practical experience. Investigation science is an empirical science. Only theoretical research derived from investigation practice can it ultimately play a guiding role in investigation practice.
