Discuss some of the possible motivations of a white-collar criminal. Why would the CEO of a Fortune 500 company embezzle money? In addition, discuss some strategies you would suggest as a business's security manager to discourage white-collar crime.

Can someone just steer me where to go on this one!

Greed! Greed! Greed! For a few people, owning two houses, three apartments, a yacht, and a plane aren't enough. They measure their own worth in the millions/billions of dollars they accumulate.

The best way to deter white-collar crime is to have a solid set of checks and balances built into the accounting practices.
