Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many commentators, regulatory agencies and politicians have blamed the risky behaviour of both financial institutions and their actors for the collapse of the United States sub-prime mortgage market which in turn precipitated the global 'Credit Crunch'. This edited volume explores how financial crime played a significant role in the global economic crisis. The volume features contributions from internationally renowned academic and practitioner experts in the field who pinpoint some of the most important facets of financial crime which have emerged over recent years. Key subjects include: the possibility of criminalising reckless risk-taking on the financial markets; the duty of banks to prevent money-laundering and corruption; the growth of the Shadow Banking System; and the manipulation of LIBOR by banks. The book illustrates the global nature of financial crime, and highlights the complex relationships between regulatory bodies, law enforcement agencies and private actors in the attempt to limit the harmful effect of white collar crime on the stability of the financial sector. This book will be of great use and interest to scholars, practitioners and students within the field of financial crime, banking and finance law, and international political economy.

This book was released on 2020-02-06 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2017 in the subject Sociology - Law, Delinquency, Abnormal Behavior, grade: 4.0, University of Benin, language: English, abstract: The work determines if the economic recession in Nigeria has any influence on criminal behaviour amongst youths. The specific objectives of this research are to identify the causes of recession, to determine the social implications of economic recession on the society, to ascertain the increase in the level of crime amongst youths in economic recession and to ascertain the patterns of crime committed by youths in periods of economic downturn. The author examines the influence the downturn of the economic had on the criminal behaviour among youths, most especially those based in Benin City, Edo State Nigeria. Therefore, data from pre-economic recession to post-economic period recession has been analysed. A combination of a longitudinal and cross sectional study survey was used in order to gather the needed data from subjects, newspapers and crime statistics. The author discovered that the fall in the price of crude oil and poor economic policy were the major causes of economic recession in the period. During this period there were closure of businesses resulting from low patronage and high cost of doing business in the country. There was a high rate of unemployment which resulted tin social instability and youth restiveness in the state.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract. Economic Misery and Crime Waves: the Second Great Depression and the coming Crime Wave, and what we can do about it. The theory behind this book is that every sharp negative economic shock since 1954 has resulted in a crime wave. Sharp economic contractions such as our current global deep economic recession can create conditions of heightened economic misery (i.e. unemployment, loss of purchasing power through inflation, home equity loss, or asset deflation) which, if left unabated, can create conditions of increased crime opportunity and crime waves, where some people will choose crime as a 'rational' means of support to augment, or replace, their prior legal income. The author posits that the present economic downturn is comparable to the most severe economic shocks from the past 100 years, and this includes events such as the 1929 stock market crash and Great Depression. In the book the author reviews the past to learn clues to the types of events that occurred including past trials of crime waves and the crime control policies designed to arrest crime waves. The author is also aware that our past criminal justice policies are limited, and we must include modern technology and crime problems with no 100-year history to follow, and determine how to combat these new challenges as well. As the coming crime wave is foreseeable, it is imperative that government officials, businesses, communities, and families prepare themselves for this imminent threat. Governments can be proactive and get in front of this crime wave, preparing institutions, revising laws, targeting serious habitual offenders and known crime hotspots, and reducing the number of the most likely new offenders through diversion programs such as employment relocation. Individuals and families can change their ground, secure their places, and repel much of the crime opportunity through situational crime prevention. The book concludes with chapters and appendices that focus on solutions and suggestions on what individuals, families, communities, businesses, and governments can do to shield themselves from the crime wave. Periodic updates on signs of economic misery and crime waves as well as subsections of content from my research are posted on the author's economic misery and crime wave website (www.crimewaves.com) and periodic blogs posted at (http: //d2crimewave.blogspot.com).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For an important feature of the UK economy is international trade case. Therefore the UK would be affected by a global recession. For example, a recession in the EU would cause a fall in demand for UK exports reducing our AD (EU accounts for 60% of our trade, therefore, is important). Also, a recession in other countries would affect economic confidence if people see the US in a recession they are worried and will spend less. However, a global recession may not cause a recession in the UK if domestic demand remains high.Classical economists believe that any fall in Real GDP will be temporary and will end when labour markets adjust to the new price level. Classical economists argue that if there is a fall in AD then, in the short term, there will be a fall in real GDP However in the great depression of 1930s Keynes was very critical of this classical view he said that the long period of negative growth showed that markets do not automatically clear he argued that this was for various reasons.1.Wages are sticky downwards. Firms should cut wages to reflect lower prices but in reality, workers are very resistant to cuts in nominal wages.2.If wages were cut in response to unemployment, workers would have less spending power, therefore AD would continue to fall.*Can economic crises bring rise in crime ?Crime may peak during economic crises, During periods of economic stress, the incidence of robbery may double, and homicide and motor vehicle theft also increase.While a consistent relationship between specific crimes and specific economic factors could not be established, the evidence shows that crime is linked to the economic climate. Such findings are consistent with criminal motivation theory, which suggests that economic stress causes an increase in criminal behaviour. The available data do not, however, support the theory of criminal opportunity, which suggests that decreased levels of production and consumption may reduce some types of crime, such as property crime, by creating fewer potential crime targets."The presence of youth gangs, the availability of weapons and potential targets, drug and alcohol consumption and the effectiveness of law enforcement all play a significant role in enabling or restraining overall crime levels", *Relationship between a recession and crimeCriminologists say bad economies create more crime; economists say the opposite. But recent data reveals neither explanation is right. I've been wondering if hard economic times would cause people to commit more crimes. For example, areas with chronic poverty and unemployment tend to have high rates of child neglect and abuse. Child neglect and abuse greatly increase the risk of juveniles getting involved in crime.So areas with high rates of unemployment cop a double whammy. Their crime rates are higher because of the direct effect of unemployment and its long-term indirect effects as well. Will the current recession produce an increase in crime?
