Every organization faces the risk of financial loss due to fraud, but maintaining an effective audit function can help mitigate that risk. Auditors, both external and internal, must have a thorough knowledge of fraud detection and prevention to effectively fulfil their mission. Additionally, one of the best measures that any organization can take to mitigate the loss associated with fraud is to equip employees with the skills and techniques needed to detect and prevent it. Maintaining an in-depth knowledge of fraud and how it can be detected and prevented is essential to maintaining the financial integrity of any organization, large or small. The workshop will focus on:
- Typical types of fraud, their red flags and who perpetrates them
- Role of Forensic Audit in both Internal and External Audit
- Counter fraud techniques: preventing, detecting and corruption
- Incorporating Forensic Audit into the Company Audit Plans
- Involving the police and the criminal justice system and moving on: the aftermath of fraud
