Criminal and terrorist organisations are increasingly turning to
white collar crime such as fraud, e-crime, bribery, data and
identity theft, in addition to more violent activities involving
kidnap and ransom, narcotics and arms trafficking, to fund their
activities and, in some cases pursue their cause. The choice of
victims is global and indiscriminate. The modus operandi is
continually mutating and increasing in sophistication; taking
advantage of weaknesses in the system whether they be
technological, legal or political. Countering these sources of
threat finance is a shared challenge for governments, the military,
NGOs, financial institutions and other businesses that may be
targeted. Shima Keene's Threat Finance offers new thinking to equip
any organisation regardless of sector and geographical location,
with the knowledge and tools to deploy effective counter measures
to tackle the threat. To that end, she brings together a wide
variety of perspectives - cultural, legal, economic and
technological - to explain the sources, mechanisms and key
intervention methodologies. The current environment continues to
favour the criminal and the terrorist. Threat Finance is an
essential read for fraud and security practitioners, financial
regulators, policy-makers, intelligence officials, judges and
barristers, law enforcement officers, and researchers in this
field. Dr Keene offers an antidote to the lack of good, applied,
research; shortcomings in in-house financial and forensic
expertise; misdirected financial compliance schemes; legal and
judicial idiosyncrasies; unhelpful organisation structures and poor
communication. She argues convincingly for a coherent, aggressive,
informed and cross-disciplinary approach to an ever changing and
rapidly growing threat.
