Penguin Specials are designed to fill a gap. Written to be read over a long commute or a short journey, they are original and exclusively in digital form. This is John Gapper's foray into the world of rogue traders. Unlike most bankers, they are household names: Nick Leeson of Barings, Jerome Kerviel of Societe Generale, John Rusnak of Allied Irish Bank. And now the 31 year-old Kweku Adoboli, who allegedly ran up $2.3bn in losses at UBS. These are the men who have bought banks to their knees and global financial systems to a halt. Each time the banks declare themselves to be innocent victims of a fraud. But why do traders keep on committing apparently senseless crimes, with little benefit apart from higher bonuses and a risk of ending up in prison? And why do banks, which should have learned the tricks of the traders, keep being deceived? In this Penguin Special, the Financial Times' associate editor John Gapper unlocks the mystery by delving into the evolutionary risk-taking instincts of both humans and animals - from yellow-eyed junco sparrows in Arizona to honey-bees. He reveals how banks encourage their traders to evade risk limits, and shows how the rogue traders merely mimic the strategies used by their firms to seem more profitable than they really are. A rogue trader is often an outsider who starts in a lowly role and gambles with a bank's money in a bid to become a star. Gapper traces patterns of behaviour and personality that could be used to catch them before disaster strikes. But do the banks really want to? And are the rogue traders just the symptoms of a financial system gone rogue?

The Martian Mechancius's thirst for knowledge is insatiable, and when Archmagos Lexell Kotov learns of an ancient expedition that went in search of the very source of life in the universe itself, he immediately assembles a powerful Explorator fleet to follow in its footsteps. Not only does Kotov have the powerful engines and warriors of the Adeptus Mechanicus to call upon, even the troops of the Imperial Guard and the vaunted Space Marines join his crusade. The way, however, is treacherous and fraught with perils both within and without the fleet. There are marvels and wonders at the edge of known space, discoveries beyond price, but there are those who believe the secrets of the universe should stay hidden and beings there who pose a danger not only to the fleet but to the Imperium itself.

Fake written by David Bullen and has been published by Wiley this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2011-09-26 with Business & Economics categories.

Fake is the fascinating story of one of the four 'rogue traders' whose foreign exchange trading cost the National Australia Bank $360 million. The resulting scandal was swiftly followed by the resignation of the CEO and Chairman. Later, unprecedented boardroom brawling erupted as directors sought to shift the blame and seek scapegoats. Against the backdrop of this multimillion-dollar trading frenzy, David Bullen takes the reader into his trading world, where players worked hard and partied harder, treating the staff at other desks with contempt and the trades as little more than a game. But David is a complex character, and this story is also the story of his personal journey from a self-confessed hedonist enjoying the lavish perks of corporate life to his involvement in the drug-enhanced dance party scene and finally his search for enlightenment. As his attitude shifts from one of unabashed arrogance to tolerance and detachment, so he realises that he was only 'a faker making fake trades'.

In the heart of London's financial district, Barings Bank, a venerable institution with a history stretching back over two centuries, crumbled under the weight of one man's reckless actions. Nick Leeson, a young and ambitious trader, fueled by a combination of hubris and unchecked ambition, brought down one of the world's most respected financial institutions in a matter of months. This book is the definitive account of the rise and fall of Nick Leeson, the rogue trader whose unauthorized and unrestrained trading brought Barings Bank to its knees. With unprecedented access to exclusive interviews, confidential documents, and firsthand accounts, this book unravels the intricate web of events that led to the bank's demise, exposing the systemic failures, regulatory lapses, and personal hubris that paved the way for disaster. Beyond the gripping narrative, this book delves into the human cost of financial greed. It tells the stories of the countless individuals whose lives were upended by the collapse of Barings Bank—the investors who lost their life savings, the employees who lost their jobs, and the families who were torn apart by the ensuing scandal. This book is not just a story of financial ruin; it is a cautionary tale with profound implications for the global financial system. It exposes the fragility of a system built on trust and leverage, and it highlights the urgent need for stronger oversight, more robust risk management systems, and a renewed focus on ethical leadership. In a world where financial crises continue to erupt with alarming regularity, this book serves as a stark reminder of the importance of learning from past mistakes. It is a compelling and cautionary tale that should be required reading not just for those in the financial industry, but for anyone who wants to understand the forces that shape our economic world. This book is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity and a call for a more just and equitable financial system that serves the interests of all, not just the few.
