Surviving The Global Financial And Economic Downturn (Iu36C), Jalilian, Sothorn, Reyes & Kimsu

The volume features contributions from internationally renowned academic and practitioner experts in the field who pinpoint some of the most important facets of financial crime which have emerged over recent years.
