Big Data Saswat Sarangi author Apart from fraud, there are several related categories of intentional deceptions that may or may not include the elements of personal gain or damage to another individual:. While the precise definitions and requirements of proof vary among jurisdictions, the requisite elements of fraud as a tort generally are the intentional misrepresentation or concealment of an important fact upon which the victim is meant to rely, and in fact does rely, to the harm of the victim. Given the international nature of the web and ease with which users can hide their location, obstacles to checking identity and legitimacy online, and the variety of hacker techniques available to gain access to PII have all contributed to the very rapid growth of Internet fraud.

  • Keeping Rogue Traders at Bay
    Portfolio Media. Inc. | 860 Broadway, 6th Floor | New York, NY 10003 | www.law360.com Phone: +1 646 783 7100 | Fax: +1 646 783 7161 | [email protected] Keeping Rogue Traders At Bay Law360, New York (October 04, 2011, 4:27 PM ET) -- On Sept. 16, 2011, Kweku Adoboli, a native of Ghana and UBS AG employee, was charged with fraud arising out of unauthorized trading. UBS estimates that Adoboli’s rogue trading continued for three years and caused it to incur losses of $2.3 billion. Banks, lawyers and other industry specialists are all posing the same question: Given UBS’ sophisticated risk procedures, how did Adoboli’s rogue trading go undetected for so long? And what lessons can the industry learn? A Little Background Adoboli joined UBS’ London investment banking division as an analyst in 2003 after graduating, with honors, from the University of Nottingham in England. Adoboli served a so-called “back-office” function: He entered and confirmed trades, handled accounting issues and transmitted payments. In September 2006, he began trading exchange-traded funds (ETFs) on UBS’ “Delta-One” trading desk. The trading involves two steps. First, a client initiates a trade in an ETF that bets on the direction of a group of stocks, such as European or U.S. stocks. The trader executes the trade and acquires the basket for UBS. Second, the trader hedges the trade by creating a mirror trade of the bet. Adoboli skipped the second step and made unauthorized unhedged trades on the direction of European and U.S. stock markets using UBS funds.
