Book Synopsis Sustainable Finance and Financial Crime by : Michel Dion
Download or read book Sustainable Finance and Financial Crime written by Michel Dion and published by Springer. This book was released on 2024-06-29 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sustainable finance is a holistic approach to the sustainability development goals (SDG), so that the interdependence between environmental, social, and governance issues is unveiled. Sustainable finance takes into account the various challenges following from social change and sustainability, the evolution of capital markets, and the development of efficient risk management practices. Governance issues are an integral part of sustainable finance. However, academic literature has generally neglected to consider strategies to prevent and fight financial crimes as a crucial component of sustainable finance. The aim of this book is to focus on the interconnectedness between sustainable finance and preventing/fighting financial crime, not only as a crucial governance issue, but also as a deep challenge for social and even environmental issues. There is no really sustainable finance without developing strong and efficient means to fight financial crimes.

Book Synopsis The Illegal Wildlife Trade by : Daan P. van Uhm
Download or read book The Illegal Wildlife Trade written by Daan P. van Uhm and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-15 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book the author examines the illegal wildlife trade from multiple perspectives: the historical context, the impact on the environment, the scope of the problem internationally, the sociocultural demand for illegal products, the legal efforts to combat it, and several case studies from inside the trade. The illegal wildlife trade has become a global criminal enterprise, following in the footsteps of drugs and weapons. Beyond the environmental impact, financial profits from the illegal wildlife trade often fund organized crime groups and violent gangs that threaten public safety and security in myriad ways. This innovative volume covers several key questions surrounding the wildlife trade: why is there a demand for illegal wildlife products, which actors are involved in the trade, how is the business organized, and what are the harmful consequences. The author performed ethnographic fieldwork in three key markets: Russia, Morocco, and China, and has constructed a detailed picture of how the wildlife trade operates in these areas. Conversations with informants directly involved in the illegal business ensure unique insights into this lively black market. In the course of his journey the author follows the route of the illegal wildlife trade from poor poaching areas to rich business districts where corrupt officials, legally registered companies, wildlife farms and sophisticated criminal organizations all have a share. A fascinating look inside the world of poachers, smugglers and traders.
Book Synopsis Inclusive and Sustainable Finance by : Atul K. Shah
Download or read book Inclusive and Sustainable Finance written by Atul K. Shah and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-10-25 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instead of being a means to an end, finance has become an end in itself and a master of economic actions and priorities. The role of ethics, culture and faith has been diminished by neoliberalism over the last forty years, such that we are living through a profound moral crisis, rising inequality and plutocracy. This practice is destroying the social and trust capital that already exists and is in need of replenishing. This pioneering book draws upon diverse wisdom traditions and their current living business practices to show that not only is another world possible, but it is actually hiding in plain sight. The author argues that our obsession with technocratic economic science has disabled us from exposing the organic and culturally diverse practices of finance. The climate and inequality crises demand new institutional and cultural solutions to transform behaviour and heal the planet. Through real-life examples and case studies, this book illustrates and develops a new organic theory of finance which can be taught and shared all over the world, helping society to prepare for a sustainable and inclusive future. It provides valuable empowerment to experts and professionals from different cultures and traditions to write about their own finance practices and in turn encourage their students and communities to embrace sustainability ideals. There is a global audience for this book, given its multicultural outlook and the diversity of narratives and case studies, from entrepreneurs to MBA students and leaders in accounting and finance. It also has huge relevance for policymakers and educators keen on embracing sustainable finance in their curriculum.

Book Synopsis An Ethical Approach to Anti-Money Laundering Regulations: A Framework for Organisation of Islamic Cooperation Countries by : Ender Tosun
Download or read book An Ethical Approach to Anti-Money Laundering Regulations: A Framework for Organisation of Islamic Cooperation Countries written by Ender Tosun and published by ENDER TOSUN. This book was released on 2024-04-20 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study presents a new ethical framework for anti-money laundering (AML) that can be possible by combining Islamic system and experience, that offers a holistic, consistent, and comprehensive framework in the fight against money laundering with the global experience in this field. Although today, there are many standards and units against crimes through the fight against money laundering, this struggle has not been fully integrated with the ontological reality of the human beings and their ethical system. The contemporary world does not say much in the context of the fight against money laundering, whether good and evil are merely epiphenomenal feelings or whether they are strongly tied to a fundamental reality. As a natural consequence of this, contemporary anti-money laundering activities are mainly limited to law enforcement and intelligence activities; and this structure cannot present a holistic framework in terms of combating money laundering and thus crime by using instruments in fields that concern all aspects of life, such as economic policies, moral teaching, and academic studies. This study demonstrates how Islam provides a framework for combating money laundering, integrating the intellectual, economic, financial, ethical, and other related fields, and based on the original and ontological reality of man. To achieve this objective, the study delves into secondary literature, conducts a survey involving professionals in the field of anti-money laundering (AML), and performs a gap analysis comparing the modern AML framework with the Islamic ethical system. It also identifies areas where potential improvements can be made, where both the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) countries and other countries can support each other in reaching a higher level in the fight against money laundering. Based on these analyses, the study proposes a new framework in the fight against money laundering and concludes that both OIC and non-OIC countries have a lot to learn from each other and from the core teachings of Islam.
Book Synopsis Criminology and Climate by : Cameron Holley
Download or read book Criminology and Climate written by Cameron Holley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-29 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the role of the insurance industry in contributing to, and responding to, the harms that climate change has brought and will bring either directly or indirectly. The Anthropocene signifies a new role for humankind: we are the only species that has become a driving force in the planetary system. What might criminology be in the Anthropocene? What does the Anthropocene suggest for future theory and practice of criminology? Criminology and Climate, as part of Routledge’s Criminology at the Edge Series, seeks to contribute to this research agenda by exploring differing vantage points relevant to thinking within criminology. Contemporary societies are presented with myriad intersecting and interacting climate-related harms at multiple scales. Criminology and Climate brings attention to the finance sector, with a particular focus on the insurance industry as one of its most significant components, in both generating and responding to new climate ‘harmscapes’. Bringing together thought leaders from a variety of disciplines, this book considers what finance and insurance have done and might still do, as ‘fulcrum institutions’, to contribute to the realisation of safe and just planetary spaces. An accessible and compelling read, this book will appeal to students and scholars of criminology, sociology, law and environmental studies and provides readers with a basis to analyse the challenges and opportunities for the finance sector, and in particular the insurance industry, in the regulation of climate harms.
