Law Relating To Bank Frauds (Issues & Challenges)

Law Relating to Bank Frauds (Issues & Challenges) is a practitioner-focused handbook that brings together the law, investigative practice and compliance responses needed to confront banking frauds. Beginning with statutory foundations (relevant sections of the penal law, money-laundering statutes, and banking regulations), the book explains FIR strategy, arrest and charges, evidentiary standards, and the interface with financial regulators and agencies. Special chapters cover forensic accounting and digital forensics, typical fraud schemes (loan frauds, diversion of funds, cheque and card frauds, insider collusion, cyber-enabled payment frauds), and the law on proceeds, attachment and recovery (SARFAESI, insolvency overlap, and asset tracing). It highlights procedural pitfalls in prosecution, common defence strategies, and compliance gaps that enable fraud, plus practical checklists for drafting complaints, preservation orders and prosecution briefs. Case studies and templates (FIR checklists, sample charge-sheets, evidence matrix, and asset disclosure formats) make the book immediately operational. Updated with contemporary enforcement trends and regulatory guidance, this volume equips legal teams, compliance units and investigators to detect, litigate and recover from bank fraud with greater efficiency and legal certainty.
