Financial market reform has focused chiefly on the threats to stability arising from the risky, uncontrolled activity of the leaders of financial institutions. Nevertheless, organized crime, white-collar crime, and corruption have a huge impact on financial systems worldwide and must also be confronted if true reform is to be achieved. A collection of articles written by experts in their fields of study, Financial Crimes: A Threat to Global Security spotlights the importance of addressing the problem of illegal financial activity as part of a greater comprehensive plan for reforming the financial sector.
Drawn from the 23rd Annual Meeting of the Academic Council on the United Nations System (ACUNS) held in Vienna, the book explores the major themes discussed at this elite symposium. In the first section, the contributors examine changing concepts in security over the course of history and across nations. They discuss how an event in Austria led to the implementation of a new security philosophy that is now followed by the majority of the European Union. The book examines the diverse models of preventing security threats that have grown from that idea as well as the gradual expansion of the role of the security council of the United Nations.
The next section analyzes the present state of security worldwide and examines the wide array of criminal activity that plagues the financial sector. Expert contributors reveal methods to identify certain types of behavior and criminals as well as efforts to combat illegal activity—including the role of the media.
The final section investigates alternative approaches to preventing another worldwide financial disaster through investigative reporting, human factors analysis, legislative initiatives, and other methods.
Filled with insight from international experts, the book highlights both the warning signs to illegal activity as well as the most effective methods for combating the invidious corruption that, if unchecked, puts all nations at risk.

商品描述(中文翻譯)
金融市場改革主要集中在來自金融機構領導者的高風險、無控制活動所帶來的穩定性威脅。然而，組織犯罪、白領犯罪和貪腐對全球金融系統有著巨大的影響，若要實現真正的改革，這些問題也必須面對。由該領域專家撰寫的文章集《金融犯罪：全球安全的威脅》強調了將非法金融活動問題納入更全面的金融部門改革計劃的重要性。
本書取材於在維也納舉行的第23屆聯合國系統學術委員會（ACUNS）年會，探討了在這場精英研討會上討論的主要主題。在第一部分，貢獻者考察了歷史上和各國安全概念的變化。他們討論了奧地利的一個事件如何導致實施一種新的安全哲學，這種哲學現在被大多數歐盟國家所遵循。本書檢視了從這一理念中衍生出的多樣化安全威脅預防模型，以及聯合國安全理事會角色的逐步擴展。
接下來的部分分析了當前全球安全狀況，並檢視了困擾金融部門的各種犯罪活動。專家貢獻者揭示了識別某些行為和罪犯的方法，以及打擊非法活動的努力——包括媒體的角色。
最後一部分探討了通過調查報導、人因分析、立法倡議和其他方法來防止另一場全球金融災難的替代方法。
本書充滿了國際專家的見解，突顯了非法活動的警示信號以及對抗這種如不加以控制將使所有國家面臨風險的腐敗的最有效方法。
