Summary: "Although they are nonviolent, white collar crimes are hardly victimless. These crimes bring significant losses to individual investors and also can result in severe damage to the entire US economy. Insider trading, corporate fraud, tax evasion, and money laundering all fall under this umbrella, and there are many more offenses to join them. The explosion of the internet and related technology has only added to the list of white collar crimes. But unlike many violent crimes, white collar offenses can be difficult to uncover and difficult to prosecute. The expert viewpoints in this volume examine the topic in fascinating detail"-- Provided by publisher.
