This chapter presents the argument that financialization, as a broad economic trend, has increased the opportunities for financial crime among firms both within and outside the financial services industry. The growth of the financial services industry, increasing dependence of many economies on financial services, increasing focus on share value by firms, and dramatic increases in compensation within the financial services industry have all contributed to increases in the frequency and scale of financial crime in recent years. To illustrate these trends, three case studies are reviewed: (1) the manipulation of electrical energy prices by investment bank subsidiaries; (2) the deliberate rigging of the London Interbank Offered Rate (Libor); and (3) the fixing of foreign exchange rates by investment bank traders. The case studies involve efforts by financial industry insiders to profit by manipulating the infrastructure of those markets, tinkering with the mechanisms by which prices and rates are set.

With the development of the times, the financial system is getting bigger and bigger, and the links between the various industries are getting closer, so we need to cluster the financial industry. But how to deal with is a problem, after thinking about comparison we found that we can make some treatment between them. So the purpose of this article is to analyze the spatial distribution characteristics of financial services industry clusters based on big data. Based on the experimental principle of data security, this paper processes some data that is known on the market and unknown within the enterprise, and simulates the experimental process by using the 4-model based V+ on big data evaluation, and then the experimental results are drawn. The experimental results show that our model can analyze the spatial distribution characteristics of industrial clusters by analyzing some characteristics of financial services enterprises.
