Fraudulent Trading

Fraudulent trading refers to dishonest behavior by individuals or companies to deceive others for financial gain. This can involve manipulating financial records, misrepresenting a business's value, or creating false transactions. The goal is to mislead investors, creditors, or the public, often leading to financial losses. In many legal systems, fraudulent trading is a serious offense that can result in penalties, including fines and imprisonment, as it undermines trust in the financial markets and harms those who rely on accurate information for their economic decisions.
