As certified Fraud Examiners, we have a well-proven set of skills for protecting you against fraud with our financial audit services. We can enhance your corporate governance framework, giving your organisation a robust and practical defence against fraudulent activities. We’ll also ensure you’re familiar and fully compliant with legislation such as the UK Bribery Act 2010.
Fraud can sometimes be well-concealed, making it difficult to detect without expert knowledge and skills. Our team has an in-depth understanding the laws concerning fraud. We’ll support you by resolving allegations of fraud, discovering the true facts, detecting the perpetrators and helping you with asset identification and recovery. All our investigations, even the most complex, are confidential, discreet and professional.
You should already have a programme in place to mitigate against the risk of fraud. But how effective is it?
It’s essential to establish clearly defined roles and responsibilities in defending against fraud. If they’re not already in place, we’ll help you identify the roles, what they entail and who might be best suited to take responsibility. Knowing who is looking out for what is half the battle.
Our financial audit services help you identify the most likely sources of fraud, such as a vulnerable business unit or individual(s), probable types of fraud and possible schemes – which could be aimed at harming your reputation, as well as your finances.
We’ll help you assess and enhance these vital aspects too:
We can design and help you implement effective controls to combat both external and internal fraud, based on our knowledge of your organisation and assessment of potential weaknesses.
How well is your fraud risk management programme working? Is fraud awareness and training embedded across your organisation? How effective is that training? We can suggest recommended steps to monitor, evaluate and, where necessary, enhance your fraud risk management activities.
