Behind the bli…nding lights, clinking glasses, pursuit of a winning hand or the elusive jackpot is a darker reality that lurks in the shadows about the conduct of the casino businesses like Crown across multiple jurisdictions. From sacrificing staff on the altar of profit to money laundering and breaching of gaming laws, media and government inquiries have exposed links to organised crime and the company dodged payments of gaming taxes that added further to the companys internal and public woes. Investigative journalist Tom Ravlic takes a forensic look at Crowns ills though a detailed examination of evidence presented in government reports and to commissions and inquiries.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Australians are still reeling from the revelations of the royal commission chaired by Kenneth Hayne QC into the misconduct by advisers, banks and the priority placed on profit rather than principle by Australias largest businesses. Scandals keep surfacing, banks keep apologising and regulators… keep talking tough and pursuing cases through courts. The financial institutions, however, are not the only source of rorting and ripping off that consumers face.That year of bankers, brokers and corrupted processes did not focus on other areas in which Australians are exposed to risks of rorts and rip offs that may be regarded as bad if not worse than the misdeeds committed to satiate the lust for cash that were unveiled to Australians in the year-long theatrical extravaganza that was the Hayne Royal Commission.Hackers in hoodies, fake lovers on dating sites, providers of illegal financial or tax advice and promoters of dud investment schemes are complicit in drawing vulnerable people into their web of misery that results in serious financial loss.Tom Ravlic, the author of Vulture City How Our Bankers Got Rich on Swindles, looks at the consumer landscape and draws on case studies, government reports and his own experience over a quarter of a century in dealing with financial services professionals to provide readers with insight into the techniques and sleight of hand used by crooks, charlatans and thieves to siphon funds from honest, hard -working Australians. The book also offers tips and strategies to minimise the risk of becoming a victim. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Vulture City: How Our Bankers Got Rich on Swindles strips away the jargon, the financial alchemy and corporate speak in order to give you a stark assessment of how the banks put profit ahead of focusing on customer needs.The Banking Royal Commission presided over by Kenneth Hayne QC laid bare…some of the most egregious acts of exploitation of vulnerable consumers ever seen before a public inquiry. It shocked average Australians and bewildered seasoned business commentators. Bankers, financial advisers and other intermediaries stood on the shoulders of children, the infirm, the indigenous, the elderly, the gambling addicted, the financially illiterate and walked over the dead to get their hands on the commissions and bonus payments to which they would assert they had a right because the system rewarded the selling of products over a sense of duty of care to customers.Did anyone at any point in a position of authority stop to think whether this was right? At what point did banks and other entities transform themselves into businesses that ended up sucking consumers dry rather than being a safe space for people to place funds? Investigative journalist Tom Ravlic has spent more than two decades looking at corporate governance, business and finance and the world of number crunching. He dissects case studies, explains what went wrong and explores possible solutions to the current trust deficit in Australia's finance sector.About the AuthorTom Ravlic is an investigative journalist, author and academic with more than 23 years' experience in reporting on and analysing politics and regulatory affairs for local and international media. He returned to journalism in 2016 after spending 12 years in the finance sector dealing predominantly with regulatory and policy analysis, corporate governance, government relations and risk management.Tom's work has been published in Retail Banker International, Card International, The Accountant, the Daily Telegraph, the Sunday Mail, Crikey, The Saturday Paper and domestic and international professional journals. Tom is a fellow of the Institute of Public Accountants and FINSIA. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
