Summary:

This book is about exploring the rules of business beyond the 21st
century and how these are bent and often broken, with devastating
effect by individuals who have altered the traditional profile of
fraud and the fraudster forever. It is a compilation of papers,
theories and Congressional Testimony the story behind the stories.
This book describes the super ego, corruption at head of state and
ministerial level in the governments of over 72 countries. The book
speaks of Bank of Credit Commerce and Industry (BCCI), the bank that
laundered the funds of Noriega, the Cali and Medellin Cartels and
which was linked to international terrorism, prostitution and funding
death squads. Most of all it is about the most complicated,
sophisticated and devastating financial crimes in modern history. It
speaks of Barings Bank and the collapse of one of the world s oldest
and most respected banks at the hands of a small fry crook that
realised almost per chance his masters had left him with the keys to
both the front and back door. The Enron collapse describes a frenzy
of greed and denial. It bears testimony and stands as epitaph to the
annihilation of millions of ordinary peoples dreams.
