Our experienced accountants have specialist skills in all areas of forensic accounting including internal audit, IT audit, Tax fraud, VAT fraud, Insolvency and Corporate Finance.

Fraud is an umbrella term relating to a variety of fraudulent activities occurring either within an organisation or perpetrated against it. Attention must be given to the prevention, detection and investigation of all internal frauds by employees and by external third parties such as suppliers, customers and contractors. Any business can become a victim of fraud but precise and vigorous preparation can help prevent or minimise the risks.

Fraud can have a detrimental effect on morale within an organisation, causing misery for honest employees and managers alike. Fraud risks should be assessed and addressed like any other business risk. Clear and concise fraud statements, fraud policies, fraud response plans, definition of conflicts of interest, gifts, and business ethics should all be determined and fully endorsed by the management.
