Lawmann’s White Collar Crimes, Indian and Abroad – 2nd Edition 2025 by Dr. Manju Koolwal is a scholarly yet practical guide to understanding and tackling the complex world of financial and corporate crime. With the rising impact of globalization and digitalization, white-collar crimes have grown in sophistication and frequency, calling for in-depth legal analysis and international cooperation.This updated edition explores white-collar criminal behavior through the lens of Indian statutory frameworks like the IPC, PMLA, Companies Act, SEBI regulations, and the IT Act. Simultaneously, it offers global insights by comparing frameworks from the US, UK, EU, and other jurisdictions that are leading the way in investigating and prosecuting corporate and economic crimes.Rich in case studies and precedents, the book examines key sectors where white-collar crimes thrive—banking fraud, environmental offenses, insider trading, and money laundering—and explains how laws have evolved to prevent and punish such offenses. Law enforcement procedures, regulatory responses, and judicial interpretations are covered extensively.This book is essential for law students, researchers in criminology, practicing lawyers, policy analysts, and corporate governance professionals who want to stay informed on one of the fastest-evolving areas of law. It bridges academic theory with real-world application and presents a roadmap to understanding how societies globally are addressing white-collar criminality.
