It is impossible to over-state the importance of suspicion in relation to financial crime. It is at the heart of protecting against fraud, bribery and other offences and, of course, it is an essential element of all financial crime risk and control systems for money laundering and terrorist financing systems. First published in 2014 and now reviewed, updated and expanded "Understanding Suspicion in Financial Crime" remains the only comprehensive study of how, why and when people become, or do not become, suspicious and why they do, or do not, report those suspicions. Highly regarded in intelligence agencies and law enforcement, the book is essential reading across the entire financial sector and in commercial enterprises. Now including topics such as how changing attitudes amongst customers, rapid changes in the use of language and the use of "artificial intelligence" in a risk-assessment environment are affecting the question of suspicion, the book adds to its previously wide range of topics, taking lawyers, judges and legislators into the world of financial crime risk officers, law enforcement and intelligence operations in an easy-to-read, informal style that belies the seriousness of the subject and its treatment. ---------------------------Nigel Morris-Cotterill has been a financial crime risk and compliance strategist since 1994 with a prior background in relevant legal practice in London.-----------------------------

An Eclectic Collection of Case Studies Demonstrating Important Points and Lessons to be Learned. Case studies are drawn from official sources and each one is included here because it makes an important point for financial crime risk and compliance practitioners, those who draft and enforce law and regulation and those who make policy. In a non-academic style, cases are reported and/or analysed, sometimes in great depth. One story has been pieced together from a wide range of non-official sources because it demonstrates a massive international money laundering scheme that hid just below the surface of a very public society. ----------Nigel Morris-Cotterill left the practice of law in the City of London in 1994 since when he has specialised in financial crime risk and compliance strategies working in many jurisdictions.

Financial Crime and commercial activity are intertwined. While there is a simplistic view that the financial sector and law enforcement should concentrate on money laundering in trade, that is far, far from the reality: to consider the financial crime risk and compliance aspects. It is absolutely essential to go beyond "trade based money laundering" or its acronym "TBML". The starting point in any assessment of risk in commercial activity is not to understand the criminal abuses, but to understand the commercial activity. In this way, the abnormal is more likely to stand out. That's what Trade Based Financial Crime, Volumes 1 and 2, do. Building on the commercial activity, the opportunities for abuse can be seen and, because of that, financial crime risk and compliance officers are shown avenues for their Know Your Customer and Customer Due Diligence processes both at the time of customer acquisition and during the business relationship. ----------------- Nigel Morris-Cotterill has been a financial crime risk and compliance strategist since 1994 and before that was a solicitor in private practice in London.
