Book Description
Identifying malpractice and misconduct should be top priority for financial risk managers today Corruption and Fraud in Financial Markets identifies potential issues surrounding all types of fraud, misconduct, price/volume manipulation and other forms of malpractice. Chapters cover detection, prevention and regulation of corruption and fraud within different financial markets. Written by experts at the forefront of finance and risk management, this book details the many practices that bring potentially devastating consequences, including insider trading, bribery, false disclosure, frontrunning, options backdating, and improper execution or broker-agency relationships. Informed but corrupt traders manipulate prices in dark pools run by investment banks, using anonymous deals to move prices in their own favour, extracting value from ordinary investors time and time again. Strategies such as wash, ladder and spoofing trades are rife, even on regulated exchanges – and in unregulated cryptocurrency exchanges one can even see these manipulative quotes happening real-time in the limit order book. More generally, financial market misconduct and fraud affects about 15 percent of publicly listed companies each year and the resulting fines can devastate an organisation's budget and initiate a tailspin from which it may never recover. This book gives you a deeper understanding of all these issues to help prevent you and your company from falling victim to unethical practices. Learn about the different types of corruption and fraud and where they may be hiding in your organisation Identify improper relationships and conflicts of interest before they become a problem Understand the regulations surrounding market misconduct, and how they affect your firm Prevent budget-breaking fines and other potentially catastrophic consequences Since the LIBOR scandal, many major banks have been fined billions of dollars for manipulation of prices, exchange rates and interest rates. Headline cases aside, misconduct and fraud is uncomfortably prevalent in a large number of financial firms; it can exist in a wide variety of forms, with practices in multiple departments, making self-governance complex. Corruption and Fraud in Financial Markets is a comprehensive guide to identifying and stopping potential problems before they reach the level of finable misconduct.

Book Description
An entertaining, deeply informative explanation of how high-level financial crimes work, written by an industry insider who’s an expert in the field. The way most white-collar crime works is by manipulating institutional psychology. That means creating something that looks as much as possible like a normal set of transactions. The drama comes later, when it all unwinds. Financial crime seems horribly complicated, but there are only so many ways you can con someone out of what’s theirs. In Lying for Money, veteran regulatory economist and market analyst Dan Davies tells the story of fraud through a genealogy of financial malfeasance, including: the Great Salad Oil swindle, the Pigeon King International fraud, the fictional British colony of Poyais in South America, the Boston Ladies’ Deposit Company, the Portuguese Banknote Affair, Theranos, and the Bre-X scam. Davies brings new insights into these schemes and shows how all frauds, current and historical, belong to one of four categories (“long firm,” counterfeiting, control fraud, and market crimes) and operate on the same basic principles. The only elements that change are the victims, the scammers, and the terminology. Davies has years of experience picking the bones out of some of the most famous frauds of the modern age. Now he reveals the big picture that emerges from their labyrinths of deceit and explains how fraud has shaped the entire development of the modern world economy.

Book Description
"Cryptocoins Handbook" is a comprehensive exploration of the evolution, technology, applications, and implications of cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology. This book takes readers on a journey from the genesis of cryptocoins to their potential future impact on global economies and wealth distribution. The initial sections trace the origins and growth of cryptocoins, beginning with the groundbreaking emergence of Bitcoin and the subsequent evolution of various alternative cryptocurrencies (altcoins). Readers gain insights into the cryptographic fundamentals that underpin these digital assets, including confidentiality, integrity, authenticity, non-repudiation, key management, and defenses against cryptographic attacks. A detailed exploration of blockchain technology follows, explaining its decentralized ledger mechanism and its role in securing transactions across distributed networks. The discussion extends to consensus mechanisms such as Proof of Work (PoW), Proof of Stake (PoS), Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS), Byzantine Fault Tolerance (BFT), and Leased Proof of Stake (LPoS), elucidating their distinct approaches to validating transactions and maintaining network integrity. The book delves into the diversity within the cryptocoins ecosystem, covering not only major currencies like Bitcoin but also tokens, Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs), stablecoins, and fiat-collateralized coins. It explores how these digital assets are reshaping traditional financial services, including banking the unbanked, facilitating cross-border payments and remittances, and enabling microtransactions. Readers gain a nuanced understanding of the cybersecurity implications associated with cryptocoins, including privacy concerns related to anonymity coins and the regulatory challenges surrounding compliance and governance. The exploration extends into the transformative potential of smart contracts and decentralized finance (DeFi) in sectors such as supply chain management, logistics, gaming, and virtual worlds. Furthermore, the book addresses critical issues such as scalability through second-layer technologies, the path to mainstream adoption and institutional investment, regulatory frameworks, and environmental sustainability. It confronts challenges such as illegal activities and market volatility, while also examining the potential for cryptocoins to drive global economic change and disrupt traditional finance and banking systems. "Cryptocoins Handbook" is an essential guide for anyone seeking a comprehensive understanding of the technological innovations, economic implications, and societal impacts of cryptocurrencies. It equips readers with the knowledge to navigate this rapidly evolving landscape and anticipate the future of finance and wealth distribution in a digital age.
