Global Anti-Money Laundering Regulation
This book explores the politics of money laundering and terrorist financing (ML/TF) regulation in several countries across Africa and the Small Island States. Developed countries created the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) to combat ML/TF globally. Expectedly, the FATF’s standards mirror existing banking regulations within the G7 countries. Yet, the standards apply to all countries irrespective of the limited ML/TF risks they pose to the globa…
The Law Relating to Financial Crime in the United Kingdom
Outlining the different types of financial crime and their impact, this book is a user-friendly, up-to-date guide to the regulatory processes, systems and legislation which exist in the UK. Each chapter has a similar structure and covers individual financial crimes including money laundering, terrorist financing, fraud, insider dealing, market abuse, bribery and corruption and finally tax avoidance and evasion. Offences are summarized and their e…
Corruption, Integrity and the Law
This chapter examines the challenges as well as opportunities for a more proactive prosecution model which places anti-bribery enforcement responsibility on corporations themselves, using the provisions of Section 7 of the UK Bribery Act 2010 as an example. It analyses the operation of this Act in the light of responsibilisation theory and the de-centring of prosecution, by focusing on some regulatory dimensions of the Act and a new tool of the D…
Corruption in the Global Era
Corruption is a globalising phenomenon. Not only is it rapidly expanding globally but, more signifi cantly, its causes, its means and forms of perpetration and its effects are more and more rooted in the many developments of globalisation. The Panama Papers, the FIFA scandals and the Petrobras case in Brazil are just a few examples of the rapid and alarming globalisation of corrupt practices in recent years. The lack of empirical evidence on corr…

The article begins by identifying that the origins of the “Financial War on Terrorism” can be found in the international efforts to tackle money laundering.

The Financial Crisis and White Collar Crime – Legislative and Policy Responses
This chapter examines the role of Information Systems (IS) in creating financial instability by automating critical decision-making processes. By following a systems theoretical approach after Lee and Demetis (2016) and based on a few fundamental systems principles, the chapter identifies theoretical propositions about the nature of technology in constructing financial markets, and by extension, financial crises. The chapter draws from a few inst…

The Financial War on Terrorism
On September 11, 2001, 19 terrorists committed the largest and deadliest terrorist attack in the United States of America. The response from the inter-national community, and in particular the US, was swift. President George Bush declared what has commonly been referred to as either the ‘War on Terror’ or the ‘Global War on Terror’ on September 20, 2001. Four days later, he instigated the ‘Financial War on Terrorism’. This book defines and identi…

Convenient credit and consumer protection – a critical review of the responses of Labour and Coalition governments
This article highlights how the overreliance on access to ‘convenient credit’ in the United Kingdom has illustrated the inherent low levels of consumer protection afforded to consumers by the Consumer Credit Act. Furthermore, this has also been fuelled by the deregulation of the consumer credit market in the 1980s and 1990s by the Conservative government and by the promotion of ‘convenient credit’ by the Labour government. The article comments on…
The funding of credit unions – where has all the money gone
The aim of this article is to critically assess the impact of government funding upon the growth of credit unions in the United Kingdom (UK) in light of the unprecedented level of financial support provided by the Labour government since 1997. The article begins by defining a credit union and commenting upon their importance towards the reduction of financial exclusion. The article challenges the findings of several studies that have determined t…
Credit unions and financial exclusion – the odd couple
Credit unions have failed to develop in the United Kingdom in comparison with other jurisdictions. This is due, in part, to a restrictive legal framework and to policies adopted by local authorities and the UK government towards their development. However, it is their association with financial exclusion that has had the most detrimental impact upon the expansion of credit unions. The UK government perceives credit unions as filling the gap left …
