Services / Fraud Prevention

Obtain an understanding of the unique financial risk profile of your business.

The way to mitigate your fraud risk is to put in a robust series of internal controls designed to protect your assets and the integrity of your financial reports. We design these internal controls to follow industry best practices and ensure that fraudulent activity such as misappropriation of assets will be difficult to achieve.

We start with obtaining an understanding of the unique financial risk profile of your business. For example, if employees are handling a lot of cash, that business has a different risk profile than a business which only receives electronic payments.

Weak procedures can be changed in order to reduce risk of fraud in those risk areas.

We will conduct a risk assessment of the controls that are currently in place. This assessment will determine where there are weaknesses in the business procedures that could be exploited for fraud.

We will create recommendations for how those weak procedures can be changed in order to reduce risk of fraud in those risk areas.

Finally, once there is consensus on the changes that are required. We will implement those recommendations, document them, and help train your team on the new processes.
