Australian Priority Organisation Target

The Australian Priority Organisation Target (APOT) is a classification used by the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission to group threats considered most significant to Australia's organised crime environment.^[1] Members of the classification include money launderers and drug traffickers.^[2] As such, the list is very limited, with just eight targets added to the list in 2017-18.^[3] In February 2020 it was revealed that the vice-president of Crown Resorts had personally authorized a transaction of AUD$500,000 to an APOT and withheld details of the transaction from authorities.^[4]
