Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. First Edition. CX5 - A first edition (complete numberline) hardcover book SIGNED by Harry Markopolos on a Fulbright & Jaworski LLP label adhered on the front free endpaper in very good condition in very good dust jacket. Book has a few dog-eared pages, dust jacket and book have some bumped corners, light discoloration and shelf wear. 9.5"x6.5", 354 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. Bernard Lawrence Madoff was an American fraudster and financier who ran the largest Ponzi scheme in history, worth about $64.8 billion. He was at one time chairman of the NASDAQ stock exchange. He advanced the proliferation of electronic trading platforms and the concept of payment for order flow, which has been described as a "legal kickback". Madoff founded a penny stock brokerage in 1960, which eventually grew into Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities. He served as the company's chairman until his arrest on December 11, 2008. In 2008, the firm was the 6th largest market maker in S&P 500 stocks. At the firm, he employed his brother Peter Madoff as senior managing director and chief compliance officer, Peter's daughter Shana Madoff as the firm's rules and compliance officer and attorney, and his now deceased sons Mark Madoff and Andrew Madoff. Peter was sentenced to 10 years in prison in 2012, and Mark died by suicide by hanging in 2010, exactly two years after his father's arrest. Andrew died of lymphoma on September 3, 2014. On December 10, 2008, Madoff's sons Mark and Andrew told authorities that their father had confessed to them that the asset management unit of his firm was a massive Ponzi scheme, and quoted him as saying that it was "one big lie". The following day, agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation arrested Madoff and charged him with one count of securities fraud. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) had previously conducted multiple investigations into his business practices but had not uncovered the massive fraud. On March 12, 2009, Madoff pleaded guilty to 11 federal felonies and admitted to turning his wealth management business into a massive Ponzi scheme. The Madoff investment scandal defrauded thousands of investors of billions of dollars. Madoff said that he began the Ponzi scheme in the early 1990s, but an ex-trader admitted in court to faking records for Madoff since the early 1970s. Those charged with recovering the missing money believe that the investment operation may never have been legitimate. The amount missing from client accounts was almost $65 billion, including fabricated gains. The Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) trustee estimated actual losses to investors of $18 billion, of which $14.418 billion has been recovered and returned, while the search for additional funds continues. On June 29, 2009, Madoff was sentenced to 150 years in prison, the maximum sentence allowed. On April 14, 2021, he died at the Federal Medical Center, Butner, in North Carolina, after suffering from chronic kidney disease. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Signed by Author.

Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. 1st Edition. Fine unread condition black boards with copper spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes Author Dedication; Foreword; Who's Who; Introduction; Epilogue: Mr. Pinkslip Goes to Washington; Appendix A: Madoff Tops Charts; Skeptics Ask How; Appendix B: The World's Largest Hedge Fund Is a Fraud; Appendix C: Online Resource Guide for the Classroom and Beyond; A Note on Sources; About the Author; Acknowledgments; and Index. Illustrated with a section of black-and-white photographic plates. "Bernie Madoff was a king of the financial world. He'd helped create NASDAQ and founded one of the most successful broker-dealers in the industry. He was also a beloved philanthropist. But very few people knew about his side business: he was quietly running the largest hedge fund in the world, a fund that eventually spread to over forty nations and handled tens of billions of dollars. Harry Markopolos was a little-known number cruncher sitting at a desk at a Boston equity derivatives firm analyzing investment products. When a marketer for that firm, Frank Casey, handed Harry a prospectus outlining Madoff's strategy and asked him to create a similar product, he sat down and looked at the numbers. Literally within minutes Harry knew it was impossible to do. The numbers didn't add up. For the next ten years, Harry Markopolos and the investigative team he recruited tried desperately to warn the government, the industry, and the financial press that the largest and most successful hedge fund in the industry was a total fraud and that the respected and admired Bernie Madoff was a crook. But No One Would Listen. This is the thrilling, complete story of the pursuit of the greatest financial criminal in history - a chase that put Markopolos's life in jeopardy, led to international notoriety from his appearance on 60 Minutes, and once again opened the door to questions regarding the true effectiveness of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Markopolos's incredible investigation takes readers inside the financial industry, revealing the never-before-told stories behind the headlines. As he shows, Madoff was a creation the anything-for-profit culture that has devastated our economy and that perhaps led thousands of industry professionals, who knew about the fraud, to adhere to the industry's code of silence. No One Would Listen is the frighteningly true story of massive fraud, governmental incompetence, and criminal collusion that has changed thousands of lives forever - as well as the world's financial system." - from the inner front jacket flap. "Harry Markopolos is a hero. The silver lining in the Madoff collapse, if there could be such a thing, is that for at least one moment in time, the SEC has been exposed. And for his role in making that happen, Harry Markopolos deserves all of our thanks." - from the Foreword by David Einhorn, President and Founder of Greenlight Capital, author of Fooling Some of the People All of the Time. "How to improve financial regulation and reduce the federal budget deficit, all in one fell swoop? Fire the SEC. Hire Harry Markopolos." - James Grant, Grant's Interest Rate Observer. "This is a fascinating story that, unfortunately, only begins to uncover the underlying problems that face the investment industry. I applaud Harry and his team for their courage and conviction to act. - Gary G. Brent, Chairman, HighView Financial Group.

Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. 1st Edition. Number line complete 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 -- the first printing. There is roughening to top right corner of the blank FFE, where either a Previous Owner Name has been erased, or a name label removed. Else fine in a fine dust jacket. Signed in blue felt-tip (author's full name, only) to the title page. In 1999, salesman Frank Casey handed investment analyst Harry Markopolos a report on Bernie Madoff's investment returns, asking if he could duplicate Madoff's strategy and results. "At the bottom of the page, a chart of Madoff's return stream rose steadily at a 45 degree angle, which simply doesn't exist in finance. Within five minutes I told Frank 'There's no way this is real. This is bogus.'" Markopolos and his ad hoc team spent 10 years repeatedly warning the federal Securities and Exchange Commission -- in writing, in detail, with irrefutable mathematics -- that Bernie Madoff was running history's greatest Ponzi scheme, simply using the money of new investors to pay off previous investors FOR DECADES, without making any actual trades in the market, at all. (Madoff claimed to be hedging his investments with short-term "put" options on the Chicago Board Options Exchange. Although $9 billion of those options actually exist, "You can realistically purchase only $1 billion of these, and at various times Madoff needed $3 billion to $65 billion of these options to protect his investments -- far more than existed," Markopolos writes. "There simply were not enough options in the entire universe for him to be doing what he claimed to be doing" -- and, of course, buying all those options would have caused him to lose money, anyway.) The SEC -- a standout for laziness, worthlessness, and incompetence even among federal agencies, an outfit whose "examiners" and "investigators" had NO training in modern complex financial derivative trading AT ALL, an outfit that "couldn't find a steak at Outback" (Markolopols), that "couldn't find their own backsides with both hands even with the lights on" (Rep. Gary Ackerman, New York) -- did nothing, even though it would have taken only a few phone calls (after Markopolos told them who to call, and what questions to ask) to determine Madoff was doing NO STOCK TRADES AT ALL. Why? Having set up a reward system for knowledgeable industry insiders tipping them off to trading fraud (since such "whistle-blowers" would of course be at risk of losing their jobs, their careers, even their lives), SEC managers DESIGNATED TO INVESTIGATE FRAUD (specifically, New York SEC branch chief and surly stooge Meaghan "Don't Blame Me" Cheung, "the SEC's Female Inspector Clouseau," who cited her work CLEARING MADOFF of wrongdoing as an example of her excellent work in her 2007 SEC performance evaluation) dismissed Markopolos' detailed indictments because "he didn't work for Madoff," because he didn't include a signed confession from Madoff, and because she figured "he was only in it for the bounty" . . . even though the SEC doesn't actually PAY bounties for those exposing Ponzi schemes. Markopolos tried the Wall Street Journal. For three years, it was always "the story we hope to get to next." But there was never any story -- till excited reporters called him the day AFTER Madoff confessed. ("I handed you a Pulitzer, and you didn't want it!" Markopolos responded.) During the years in which the SEC simply sat around playing with themselves, Madoff stole an addition $43 to $58 BILLION dollars, leading to massive bankruptcies and of course to suicides when he finally confessed and his scam collapsed. The SEC did nothing because Bernie Madoff, after all, was a genius, a prominent philanthropist, co-founder of the NASDAQ. Today, the SEC continues to insist it's diligently "protecting" investors in U.S. financial markets. And if you believe that, we've got some lovely oceanfront property in Rachel, Nevada, that might interest you. . . . 354 pp. including Index. Now reduced from $90. Signed by Author(s).
