Do you have any hard statistics for financial crime? You could make the argument that financial penalties are a good deterrent because they committed the crime for financial gain. However, I think people who commit white collar crime are much more likely to be fearful of prison than people who commit violent crime.

We would have funds for better preventive measures if we stopped seeing imprisonment as a default solutionwww.theguardian.com
If I can be bothered to find hard statistics for you I will. If you look at all the countries with the best outcomes from prison and punishment, they usually prioritise rehabilitation, alternative punishments and fixing the core issue rather than simply prison as a form of punishment.
