French to English translations [PRO]
Marketing - Retail / Anti-theft device
French term or phrase: risque élevé de l'augmentation de la DI
This is a French (from France) text concerning anti-theft devices used in retail clothing stores.

The DI is what I am having trouble understanding.

The text gives the pros and cons of various types of anti-theft devices. This seems to be in the latter category.

Thanks for any help you can offer.
