Financial fraud in NZ: Inside the huge cost of white collar crime
Description
For the last few years, our headlines have been dominated by talk of ram raids, robberies, and gang members misbehaving.
Those stories have fed through to politics, with governments making a big deal about tackling gangs and cracking down on crime.
But while these crimes may make for a great photo and deliver political soundbites, little is ever said about the extent of white collar crimes like fraud.
NZ Herald investigative journalist Matt Nippert has been reporting on fraud and corruption for much of his career. He joins The Front Page to discuss the extent of it in New Zealand, and if our politicians should pay more attention to it.
