    Notes: Considers first the 1993 Money Laundering Regulations, which were introduced to implement the European Union's 1991 Money Laundering Directive and were addressed specifically to the financial sector; they were amended by the Second Money Laundering Regulations 2001 [sic] to include money transmission offices and bureaux de change, and the 2003 Regulations followed. Details the types of business which the Regulations cover, and continues with what the Regulations require: customer identification, record keeping and training. Focuses on the identification requirement, which means that the institution must have procedures for obtaining satisfactory evidence of identity from the customer.

    Notes: Introduces the USA's Food Stamp Program, which provides large amounts of money to poor people. Shows how this distribution system creates the potential for money laundering, through both the Electronic Benefits Transfer system and food stamp coupons, and the social costs of this misuse of funds. Points out that financial institutions are in a unique position to help the Food and Nutrition Service and law enforcement agencies combat this misuse, by identifying suspicious activities. Highlights six cases relating to food stamp trafficking; these illustrate how money laundering was involved and how financial institutions' Know Your Customer/Customer Due Diligence policies and Suspicious Activity Reports can be used to minimise it.

    Notes: Indicates the importance of the Informal Value Transfer System (IVTS) and hawala in particular as a means whereby immigrant workers can send remittances to their home countries, and the reasons for suspecting that these systems can be used to transfer funds which support terrorist activities. Lists the indicators of IVTS activity. Lists and discusses the possible indicators of criminal abuse: different charging, recording or collection methods for some clients, some large transactions not recorded, large sums transferred daily or from a single customer, unusual or unsound transactions, and transfers to traders or companies engaged in a very different kind of business or in illegal activities. Argues that a large daily turnover may be the most important indicator, since this can indicate that money is going out one door in order to come back through the other, which means money laundering.

    Notes: Discusses the history and procedural system of anti-money laundering regulation in Hungary, which was the first of the former Warsaw Pact countries to accept regulations which established a legal background to the fight against money laundering, and to classify it as a crime in its own right. Describes the Penal Code statutes and the Law on the Prevention and Interception of Money Laundering, and indicates the problems involved in accurately defining relevant offences, which now include that of neglecting to report cases of money laundering. Concludes that the continued spread of organised crime in Hungary is worrying, and that control of money laundering is in the country's interests: Hungary is neither small nor large enough to tolerate it.

    Notes: Defines data mining as the extraction of potentially useful information from large databases. Shows how data mining can be applied to detecting anomalous behaviour in American agriculture and thus support the Risk Protection Agency in its compliance mission to detect fraud in crop insurance, using corn as the crop studied and percentage of acres harvested as the key indicator for "proof of concept". Indicates potential areas of improvement, such as the development of a single data warehouse, and the role of social scientists with knowledge of data analysis and agricultural management. Concludes that data mining could be more effective than the current technique of random selection for investigation of individual entities.

    Notes: Focuses on a type of white-collar crime known as occupational fraud, which is estimated to amount to 6% of total revenues in the USA. Describes the control mechanisms that US organisations use to control and prevent this crime, including background checks, internal and external audits, and more recently, the use of anonymous reporting aimed to make employees turn in fraudulent co-workers. Reviews the literature on this topic and describes the methodology used in the research, which examines the four types of control mechanism. Concludes that the study validates previous research in finding that the direct costs of occupational fraud are extensive, that there exist related societal effects which are however unmeasurable with any accuracy, that virtually no US organisational setting is immune from internal fraud, and that a variety of measures are needed to control this crime.

    Notes: Analyses, from reported cases, the causes of failures in business and the lessons that can be learnt. Explains risk management and insurance, the differences between salaried employment and self-employment, business size, borrowing and financing the business. Gives some case studies which focus on lending to property developers and covers issues relating to the business of the developer, loan recovery, overcommitment and damage limitation, and borrowing to repay past debts. Concludes that lenders in these cases seemed relatively unconcerned with borrowers' abilities to run their businesses properly, why they wanted the money, or the success of the businesses; they were satisfied with sureties of property as security, while judges seemed reluctant to penalise their irresponsibility. Recommends how this should be remedied.

    Notes: Describes the greatly extended UK legislation to prevent money laundering, which is defined as the process by which the proceeds of crime and the true ownership of those proceeds are changed so that the proceeds appear to come from a legitimate source; the three stages of the money laundering process are placement, layering, and integration. Details the provisions of the Proceeds of Crime Act (POCA) 2002, including substantive money laundering offences pursuant to POCA and to the Terrorism Act 2000, "failing to report" offences, and "tipping off" offences. Outlines the Money Laundering Regulations (MLR) 2003, which place additional anti-money laundering administrative requirements on organizations undertaking specified regulated activities. Discusses how POCA and the MLR affect disclosure and legal privilege, and the practical effects of POCA and MLR on professionals such as finance organizations, estate agents, casinos and barristers.

    Notes: Discusses the relationship between organized crime and terrorism; this is an important area of research in the development of legal and other means for control both of them. Analyses paradigms of organized crime: as nationwide conspiracy, as an avenue for upward social mobility of disadvantaged ethnic groups, and as state-organised crime or white-collar crime. Proposes the view that in fact organisations like the Mafia should be regarded as "disorganised crime". Explains various theories about the nature of terrorism: the instrumental approach, organisational process theory, world system theory, and military theory. Concludes that the distinction between organised crime and terrorism is less clear, since terrorists use the methods of organised crime in order to fund their activities, while organised crime groups often resemble cellular terrorist structures.

    Notes: Describes the traditional money laundering methods of physical currency smuggling and the more common use of financial and other institutions. Shows how the pressure on vulnerable institutions to ensure control of conventional money laundering has induced criminals to expoit the potential of electronic money. Lists the advantages of electronic money for laundering: it has no bulk, is easily transferred, and is anonymous. Discusses how internet banking and internet casinos allow criminals to launder electronic money. Indicates the need for effective counter measures to these illegal practices, the work of the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering, and the difficulty of controlling the popular pastime of internet gambling in the USA.
