Situational prevention are measures that reduces opportunities and increases the risk of crime by creating a systematic and permanent change in the environment. Today, the most important criminal economic cases in Afghanistan are related to crimes which committed through banks. This has increased the necessity of situational prevention of banking crimes.

In the first technique (increasing effort to commit a crime), can be achieved by tightening the target of crimes such as transparency and the establishment of national banking systems and control of crime facilitators such as periodic relocation Banking staff and strengthening e-banking prevented banking crimes. In the second technique (increasing the risks of crime), it is possible to prevent banking crimes by creating a comprehensive supervisory system, ‌ monitoring and identifying bank employees and appointing a manager to combat banking crimes. In the third technique (reduction of benefits and proceeds from crime), can reduce the attractiveness of crime and deprive of interest, and in the fourth technique (elimination of excuses) through legislation, ‌ awareness and facilitate the implementation of laws prevent from banking crimes.
