From there, we are able to develop a simple mathematical function that attempts to disclose the mechanic used by financial predators tojure their preys.įinancial predation refers to the phenomenon whereby some financial experts operate in systematic ways in order to bait their victims, abuse and rob them while being able to protect themselves from the claws of justice.
The main finding with respect to the present paper is that perceived predation operates within certain set boundaries. Anderson and Nanus, 1990), we feel the measurement and tools used are appropriate and that the present research has strong nomological value 2. Since results corroborate previous results found by different scientific authors (e.g. This paper consists of an analysis of data collected over a four-year span, in various economic and non-economic contexts, using the same measurement and analytical method (so-called data percolation-Mesly 2012a) and essentially the same tools. Important articles have in the past follow this procedure with much success. This paper rests largely on the theory of predation as set forth by the works of Mesly, Mesly and Levy Mangin, and Mesly, Levy Mangin and Racicot (1999 to 2012) and thus has deliberately chosen to resort only to the most significant literature in the context of the present study. Understanding these mechanisms amounts to unveiling the modus operandi of financial crooks. We argue that financial predators have a profound knowledge, if not an unconscious knowledge, of predatory mechanisms. The question is how do those financiers manage to escape the radars institutionally set by financial regulatory agencies such as Security Exchange Commission (SEC) and intuitively by common investors 1?
In Canada, it is estimated that nearly 5 % of the population has lost money to "some kind of investment fraud or another" (Kempa, 2010, p. There is barely a week going by without a newspaper article or a news channel announcing that somewhere around the globe a financial advisor or guru has got away with his clients hard-earned money. Key words: Perceived predation MESLY model attachment theory trust, cooperation predator prey. Understanding the narrow range in which financial predators operate is setting the grounds to offer better protection to investors and to implementing better control and punitive measures. They are experts at minimizing the perception that clients could have that they are after their money, causing them financial harm, by surprise (perceived predation). These findings add to the theory of financial predation which stipulates that financial predators operate below the limits of detection pertaining to their customers (and market regulators). It also finds a constant of k = 1.3 which reflects the invariant nature of perceived predation. It argues that the phenomenon of perceived predation as a functional behavioural phenomenon is subjected to certain limits, a finding based on studies performed on 19 different groups spread over a four-year span. This paper rests largely on the works of Mesly (1999 to 2012). Palabras clave: Depredación percibida el modelo Mesly la teoría del apego la confianza la cooperación el depredador la presa. Los resultados se asemejan a los de la teoría del apego y de la depredación financiera estipulando que los depredadores financieros actúan por debajo de los límites de detección de los clientes y de las agencias de control de los mercados, por ello se vuelven expertos en reducir a la mínima expresión la percepción de los clientes causándoles un daño financiero serio. La constante k =1.3 identifica el carácter invariable de la depredación percibida. Olivier Mesly and Jean-Pierre Lévy ManginĮste artículo se ciñe en las investigaciones de Mesly (1999 a 2012) y presenta los límites de conducta funcional de la percepción percibida en un estudio de 19 grupos distintos repartidos en un periodo de cuatro años.
