The countryās overall criminality score is driven by criminal markets and criminal actors in almost equal measure, with the latter scoring marginally higher than the former. Senegalās criminal market subcomponent scores range from 2.5 to 7, demonstrating notable differences in levels of pervasiveness of the various markets. The markets with the most significant negative impact on society are in the environmental-crime sector. Deforestation and illegal gold mining are the main drivers of high scores. Senegal is one of only a handful of countries in Africa in which foreign actors are the most influential among the criminal actor categories. Senegal is increasingly becoming a destination of choice for foreign criminals, particularly those involved in the environmental crime markets, due to the high levels of development and stability in the country. These foreign criminal groups have strong links to domestic criminal networks, who are also prominent in the country. In terms of resilience, Senegal performs extremely well, ranking 5th overall in Africa. All resilience indicators score 5 or higher, demonstrating moderate effectiveness at the very least in all areas. Senegalās law enforcement agencies are particularly effective, and the country's non-state actors are vocal and dynamic, with high levels of media freedom. The consistent and sustained prioritisation of the fight against organised crime by the Senegalese government has led to major successes in areas such as international cooperation and its capacity to combat money laundering.
