About the Book

This book considers the growing and emerging issue of unexplained wealth and how this issue fits within the larger challenge of financial and economic crime. The collection provides a rich and robust contribution to the dearth of knowledge in this space. Contributions are drawn from legal practitioners, academics and experts from the Global South, Global North, and the Asia Pacific who share their insights to the methods and approaches that have been utilised to tackle unexplained wealth in their respective countries. Each author provides a comprehensive critique of the current regime in addressing the issue and identifies failings. The volume further considers how unexplained wealth can be recognised as an important category, similar in this respect to fraud, bribery, corruption, and tax evasion amongst others. Establishing the issue of unexplained wealth as an independent area of research, the book will be essential reading for researchers, academics and policy-makers working in the areas of financial and economic crime, banking law and international corporate governance.

Review :
“This timely book offers a compelling exploration of unexplained wealth as a rising concern in financial crime. Drawing on global expertise, it delivers critical insights into legal frameworks and policy responses. A must-read for scholars, practitioners, and policymakers seeking to understand and address this important, emerging and under-researched issue.” —Umut Turksen, Professor, University of Exeter, UK. “Unexplained wealth orders are a vitally important tool in combating economic crime, but have been subject to only limited research. This edited collection brings together some of the world's leading experts on this subject. It covers a wide range of important subjects such as property, cryptocurrencies and public procurement among others. Critically it explores the subject from a global perspective with chapters focused upon countries in Africa, the Middle East and the UK. It is essential reading for scholars and practitioners working in this area.” — Mark Button, Professor, University of Portsmouth, UK “Unexplained wealth measures serve as a complement, or often an alternative, to traditional criminal law tools, especially thanks to the reversal of the burden of proof. This volume offers an increasingly relevant global perspective, tracing their legal evolution and practical function across jurisdictions.” — Enrico Basile, Bocconi University, Milano, Italy "An excellent contribution to our still limited understanding of unexplained wealth within the context of economic crime, this volume integrates diverse international perspectives into a timely and multidisciplinary evidence base that can inform the work of policymakers and law enforcement across different jurisdictions. — Lorenzo Pasculli, University College London (UCL), UK
