Book Description
This is Book Two (Fraud and the Serious Fraud Office) in the series 'Fraud Law', following Book One (Serious Fraud and Current Issues), and deals with legal issues such as the right to silence of a suspect. The law of Germany, France and New York and Illinois is discussed and compared with English law to give a good perspective of fraud in the developed world. The very fact that the series consists of five volumes speaks for itself that fraud is a huge problem and seems to have become accepted as part of our culture, with roots of fraudulent behaviour running deep into the fabric of finance and accountancy. There is nothing new under the sun, as the saying goes, and fraud is as common today as in centuries past, man's ingenuity and cunning only growing sharper.

Book Description
Fraud is big business and it rots the fabric of finance and accountancy, as it is exercised by all day trading of bonds, junk bonds, loans. Twenty-five years ago, fraud was said to be rapidly expanding and manifests itself by shady deals, fraudulently converted cash. Fraudsters who are active, especially electronic fraud, do in fact treat the use of fraud as serious "business" and the execution of frauds as "work", much as other criminals treat their activities as their "job"! Identity theft poses a frightening threat of being taken in by crooks. If twenty-five years ago it was estimated that the amount of fraudulent cash around the world at any one time more than equalled the Gross National Products of several third-world countries, it would not be believed--a damning indictment indeed. In this fascinating and comprehensive study on Fraud the author takes advantage of the fact that people seem thrilled to hear about frauds, like murders. She has prepared works that will use the reader's' attention to discuss law enforcement and the consequences of breaking the law by committing frauds.

Book Description
The Serious Fraud Office is Britain's most controversial crime-fighting organization, generating admiration and contempt in almost equal measure. It has known triumph with the Guinness convictions, disaster with the acquittal of the Maxwell brothers, and ridicule with Roger Levitt's derisory sentence of community service. In addition, it dealt with Peter Clowes, George Walker, and Asil Nadir. This book provides the background story of the Serious Fraud Office's turbulent history. Including many interviews with Britain's top fraud investigators as well as some of the SFO's most famous targets, it is published to coincide with a six-part television series.

Book Description
This FRAUD LAW BOOK FIVE is a compilation of articles illustrating the diverse areas in which serious fraud occurs, areas such as accountancy frauds, music piracy, internet fraud and identity fraud. In music piracy, for example, the issue is that of the protection of property rights yet still ensuring the free circulation of goods bought in good faith. That these issues are hugely problematic is borne out by the fact that the United Kingdom Parliament is still grappling with the drafting of the UK Fraud Bill, yet to receive Royal Assent.

Book Description
This study - a joint project between the Australian Institute of Criminology and PricewaterhouseCoopers - provides an analysis of a sample of serious fraud prosecutions completed in 1998 and 1999 throughout Australia and New Zealand. The findings provide an indication of how serious fraud is committed, how much loss is suffered, the characteristics of offenders and victims, offender motivations, rationalisations and mitigating factors, and certain key indicators relating to the judicial processing of cases, including how cases were discovered, the length of investigations, and the sentences imposed on offenders. Finally, the study identifies certain key risk factors behind the commission of the crimes. The findings confirm that serious fraud in Australia and New Zealand is both prevalent and costly, while the application of criminal justice responses raises many challenging investigatory, legal and practical issues. Being better informed with respect to the nature and extent of the problem will help people involved in dealing with such cases to plan their responses and, hopefully, also help prevent those at risk of victimisation from falling prey to offenders.

Book Description
Economic crime is a significant feature of the UK’s economic landscape and yet despite the government’s bold mission statements ‘to hold those suspected of financial wrongdoing to account’ as part of their ‘day of reckoning’ and ‘serious about white-collar crime’ agenda, there is a sense that this is still not being done effectively. This book examines the history of the creation of the UK’s anti-economic crime institutions and accompanying legislation, providing a critique of their effectiveness. The book analyses whether the recent regulatory regime is fit for purpose as well as being appropriate for the future. In order to explore how the UK’s economic crime strategies could be improved the book takes a comparative approach analysing policy and legislative responses to economic crime in the United States and Australia in order to determine whether the UK could or should import similar structures or laws to improve the enforcement of UK economic crime.
