Set against the backdrop of the recurring waves of financial
scandal and crisis to hit Canada, the US, the UK, and Europe over
the last decade, this book examines the struggles of securities
enforcement agencies to police the financial markets. While
allegations of regulatory failure in this realm are commonplace and
are well documented in policy and legal scholarship, James Williams
seeks to move beyond these conventional accounts arguing that they
are based on a limited view of the regulatory process and overlook
the actual practices and dilemmas of enforcement work. Informed by
interviews with police, regulators, lawyers, accountants, and
investor advocates, along with a wealth of documentary materials,
the book is rooted in a uniquely interdisciplinary social science
perspective. Peering inside the black box of enforcement, it
examines the organizational, professional, geographical,
technological, and legal influences that shape securities
enforcement as a distinctly knowledge-based enterprise. The result
of these influences, Williams argues, is the production of a very
particular vision of financial disorder which captures certain
forms of misconduct while overlooking others, a reflection not of
incompetence or capture but of the unique demands and constraints
of the regulatory craft. Providing a very different, and much
needed, account of the challenges faced by regulators and
enforcement agencies, this book will be of enormous interest to
current research on enforcement, regulation, and governance both
within and beyond the financial realm.
