Abstract

Who are the perpetrators of white-collar crime? According to a survey conducted by auditing firm KPMG (2009), it has become extremely difficult to profile a typical white-collar criminal. They argue that the person can be of any age group, income level, or tenure of employment. However, they found that most fraudsters are from 26 to 40 years of age, earn a substantial annual income, and have been employed for between 2 and 5 years.
