In the space of three years, from 2009 to 2012 Bernie Madoff, Tom
Petters and R. Allen Stanford were all convicted for running
multi-billion dollar Ponzi schemes. These three schemes alone have
had the largest financial take in U.S. history. But what role does
the economy and legislation play in the occurrences of Ponzi
schemes? What is the nature of Ponzi schemes and what are their
tools and mechanisms? What can we know about Ponzi perpetrators?
Unraveling the answers to these questions (and many more), Marie
Springer provides the first representative portrait of Ponzi
schemes, their perpetrators, and their victims. Adopting a
multidisciplinary approach, she begins by presenting an overview of
different types of Ponzi schemes. She later explores perpetrators
and victims of Ponzi schemes followed by a close examination of
economic trends, regulatory changes, and the financial relationship
with Ponzi schemes. Other key features include: * A non-technical
overview of both offender based and offense-based approaches of
studying this form of fraud. * Examples of Ponzi schemes and Ponzi
schemers. * A wealth of descriptive statistics on known federal
cases from the 1960s until the present to quantify this specific
form of fraud. Broadening our understanding of Ponzi schemes as a
form of white-collar crime, The Politics of Ponzi Schemes provides
an excellent foundation for students and practitioners of public
administration, banking, as well as investors, finance and
accounting, law enforcement officers, legislators and regulators.
