Keskusrikospoliisi (Swedish: Centralkriminalpolisen, English: National Bureau of Investigation) located in the city of Vantaa is a division of Finland's national police. Literally Keskusrikospoliisi/Centralkriminalpolisen would be translated as "Central Criminal Police", which might be a more descriptive name for the entity, as its primary mission is to fight against international, organized, professional, economic and other serious crime, and it functions as a nation-wide unit.
