Facts and Figures
When fraud is detected within a business, there is usually shock and disbelief that a trusted employee who resembles the “person next door” could have done what they are accused of. The initial response is “How could that have happened?” In light of the cost and characteristics of offenders, it is important to develop strategies to prevent or detect business fraud. In order to combat fraud and white collar crime in business, a concerted effort must be exerted by the management of the business, the external auditors, and by all employees of the business.
Everyone must realise that fraud is not a victimless crime. The cost of fraud and theft are shared by all through higher costs and lower corporate profits. A comprehensive strategy for fraud governance is essential if an organisation is to reduce the likelihood and impact of major fraud.
