Insider Dealing and Money Laundering in the EU: Law and Regulation
This work presents a comparative study of the provisions relating to insider dealing under the EC Insider Dealing Directive. The volume begins with a discussion of the rationale for regulating financial services in general and controlling insider dealing and money-laundering in particular. It examines the definition of an insider and of inside information and the various criminal offenses relating to insider dealing. The role of money-laundering is also recognized and the anti-money laundering regime as well as the considerable impact on the financial sector is discussed in detail. The work assesses the efficacy of criminal law in controlling insider dealing and considers the increasing trend to deal with it by means of civil/administrative measures.
Fundamental Principles of EU Law Against Money Laundering
This book critically analyses fundamental principles of EU law for the control of international economic crime. Discussing how the reporting system and the exchange of information are at the heart of the global anti-money laundering regime, the study also looks at the inferential force of financial intelligence in criminal proceedings and the responsibilities this places on prosecutors and criminals alike. The author closely examines the application of Article 8(2) of the European Court of Human Rights for the retention and movement of the fingerprints, cellular samples and DNA profiles of unconvicted persons, and argues the incompatibility with the ECHR, along with the effect of socially stigmatising unconvicted persons. The work concludes with exploring how financial regulation has, inter alia, shifted responsibility to businesses and financial institutions to become more transparent and accountable to financial regulators and tax authorities. This critical analysis is essential reading for law students and the Judicial Body, as well as financial crime investigators and regulators.
Rethinking Money Laundering & Financing of Terrorism in International Law
In Rethinking Money Laundering & Financing of Terrorism in International Law: Towards a New Global Legal Order, Roberto Durrieu provides a broad and original analysis of the phenomenon of money laundering, through a thorough examination of the financing of terrorism. The necessity of excluding the financing of terrorism from the legal definition of money laundering is clearly illustrated through extensive, original and comparative research. In addition, the book advocates the recognition of money laundering as an international crime strictu sensu that can be tried by a special international tribunal. The hidden, mutable, complex and global nature of the crime must be addressed multilaterally...
Threat Finance
Criminal and terrorist organisations are increasingly turning to white collar crime such as fraud, e-crime, bribery, data and identity theft, in addition to more violent activities involving kidnap and ransom, narcotics and arms trafficking, to fund their activities and, in some cases pursue their cause. The choice of victims is global and indiscriminate. The modus operandi is continually mutating and increasing in sophistication; taking advantage of weaknesses in the system whether they be technological, legal or political. Countering these sources of threat finance is a shared challenge for governments, the military, NGOs, financial institutions and other businesses that may be targeted. S...

The Role of Business in Global Governance
This book offers a theoretically innovative and empirically rich analysis of the new political role of corporations in the co-performance of governance functions beyond the state. It takes stock of the different types of private contributions to transnational governance as an expression of the new interplay between the state, the business sector and civil society. It provides an understanding, grounded in theory, of the potential and the limits of private self-regulatory arrangements as components of future global governance architecture. It investigates under what conditions which kinds of private contributions to governance beyond the state can be expected; and offers a comprehensive evaluation of the effectiveness and legitimacy potential of private contributions to global governance. By conceptualizing the role change of business actors as corporate norm-entrepreneurship and employing a comprehensive set of criteria for its evaluation, this book goes much further than other studies in the field.
Le vertige haïtien
Partant d'une simple observation, la crise permanente du pays, l'auteur offre dans cet ouvrage des réflexions approfondies et une nouvelle approche de l'échec de l'Etat-nation et de la faiblesse chronique de la croissance économique en Haïti. Il illustre, au travers de fresques d'exposés et de recommandations, comment toute route menant à la démocratie véritable et à l'éradication de la pauvreté endémique en Haïti doit passer par l'établissement de l'Etat de droit et de la croissance économique forte et soutenue.
