White Collar Crime
White Collar Crime refers to non-violent, financially motivated crimes typically committed by business and government professionals. These crimes often involve deceit and are aimed at securing personal or business financial gain. Common examples include fraud, embezzlement, and money laundering.
Unlike traditional crimes, which may involve physical harm or property damage, white collar crimes can have widespread economic impacts. They can undermine trust in financial institutions and lead to significant losses for individuals, companies, and even entire economies. Law enforcement agencies and regulatory bodies work to detect and prevent these crimes to protect the public and maintain market integrity.
