'This new book from Routledge, which explores the link between the global economic crisis and financial crime, must surely be one of the best.' - Phillip Taylor MBE and Elizabeth Taylor of Richmond Green Chambers (2015)
‘It is a unique innovation in financial markets and financial crime literature, providing an inquiry into the global financial crisis from a distinctive criminal law perspective and, at the same time, bringing some fresh analyses generally, on the current state of the law and practice in this field. Importantly, it also raises a few pertinent unanswered questions, which provide a clear roadmap for further inquiry. […]It is a must read for scholars, students, professionals, commentators and policymakers in law, accountancy, banking and financial industry. As far as Europe and the US are concerned, it is the most current and comprehensive analysis of the regulatory standard and legislative response to current issues plaguing the financial markets.’ Review by Martin-Joe Ezeudu in the King's Law Journal, DOI: 10.1080/09615768.2015.1101903
‘In the spirit of helping to address some of the silences in our understandings, the scope of this collection is helpful and impressive. This arises from the breadth of coverage from a range of different and indeed disparate focal points, and from the distinctive angles brought by contributors from different backgrounds: as one would expect, many are academic lawyers, who are joined by specialists in global political economy, and also lawyers providing practitioner perspectives.’ Review by Dr Sarah Wilson in the Journal of International Banking Law and Regulation 2016, 31(1)
