Global Financial Crime

Terrorism, Money Laundering and Offshore Centres
Herausgeber: Masciandaro, Donato

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The scope for financial crime has widened with the expansion and increased integration of financial markets. As new technologies reduce the importance of physical proximity to major onshore financial centres, so a new generation of Offshore Financial Centres (OFCs) have emerged. Using a multidisciplinary approach with an international level of expertise, the book evaluates international policies regarding off-shore countries on the basis of a systematic analysis of their characteristics.
