Inhaltsangabe

Introduction to the Theories and Varieties of Modern Crime in Financial Markets explores statistical methods and data mining techniques that, if used correctly, can help with crime detection and prevention. The three sections of the book present the methods, techniques, and approaches for recognizing, analyzing, and ultimately detecting and preventing financial frauds, especially complex and sophisticated crimes that characterize modern financial markets.

The first two sections appeal to readers with technical backgrounds, describing data analysis and ways to manipulate markets and commit crimes. The third section gives life to the information through a series of interviews with bankers, regulators, lawyers, investigators, rogue traders, and others.

The book is sharply focused on analyzing the origin of a crime from an economic perspective, showing Big Data in action, noting both the pros and cons of this approach.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Statistical methods and data mining techniques, if used correctly, can help crime detection and prevention. Three sections of this book present the methods, techniques, and approaches for recognizing, analyzing, and ultimately detecting and preventing financial frauds, especially complex and sophisticated ones that characterize modern financial markets. The first two appeal to readers with technical backgrounds. First, an analytic section on data describes the data themselves, then the second section describes ways to manipulate markets and commit crimes. The third section gives life to the data and crimes through a series of interviews with bankers, regulators, lawyers, investigators, rogue traders, and others. Limited to the goal of analyzing the origin of a crime from an economic perspective, Data Mining and Crime Analysis in Financial Markets shows Big Data in action, noting both pros and cons of the approach.
