With the rapid economic development, financial frauds in Taiwan are on the increase from one year to another. A few defendants usurped the economic fruits brought by the toil of the whole people. When the economy is on the upswing, people are less complaining about economic offenses. In recent years the economic recession has sharpened people’s realization about the scourge of financial crimes. As comparatively fewer financial offenses are convicted and some political figures are involved in some cases, people have the feelings that politics has manipulated the judiciary.This study hypothesize different (judicial, financial, and finance supervisory) organizations and officials (judges, prosecutors, prosecutor’s assistances, and special agents of Investigation Bureau, Ministry of Justice) have different sensibilities about the offenses, perceptions of their causes, and opinions on countermeasures. This study is intended to find out such differences through meticulous analyses and to gauge their sensibilities, perceptions, and countermeasures for reference by competent organizations in controlling financial frauds. In the discipline of financial crime, the studies are not as plenty as in the field of traditional street crimes, it is hoped that this study will become a minnow that can attract the whale – the more valuable opinions – and the attention of various circles to this type of offense.In the study, most of the people interviewed have expressed their sensibilities and agreed that financial offenses will affect the development of the economy as a whole, undermine the financial order, and tarnish the nation’s image. With regard to the cause of financial offenses, ninety percent of the interviewees lay the blame on the failure of not impounding or confiscating the gains of the offenses in time, on the lack of internal control and audit among the financial institutions, on the insufficiency of financial knowledge among the people, and on the inadequate channels of international cooperation. As for the countermeasures, the interviewees opine that judicial personnel and law enforcement agencies should increase their financial knowledge.There are great differences among judicial, finance supervisory and financial personnel in their sensibilities to and in the identity of the causes of financial offenses but their differences in opinion on the control of financial crime are not conspicuous. Through polynomial regression analysis the equation is:Countermeasure = α*sensibility β* cause C (α, β are coefficients and C is a constant)It is discovered in the analysis that, in the explanation of the countermeasure, sensibility accounts for 0.516, whereas the cause accounts for 0.605. When sensibility and cause are used as independent variables, they can explain 65.0% of the change of the countermeasure (R=0.650).In the end, the researcher makes proposals on the control of financial offenses from the perspectives of the criminal justice system, regulatory authority, and financial institutions in hopes of arousing the interests of domestic academics and financial practitioners in follow-up studies of financial offenses in order to reduce the harms of the crime. |
