Embezzling always seemed like a confusing concept. Can you tell me more about that concept?

Embezzling is the illegal practice of using company assets for personal gain. It typically involves the dishonest use of company funds or property for one’s own profit or advantage. Generally, embezzling involves fraudulently taking, appropriating or using a company’s funds or property without permission or for a purpose other than that to which it was entrusted. It is considered a white-collar crime, and can result in severe criminal penalties depending on the amount embezzled.
