Produktbeschreibung

The indispensable guide to detecting and solving financial crime in the office

Low-level financial crimes are a fact of life in the modern workplace. Individually these crimes are rarely significant enough to warrant the hiring of professional investigators, but if left unchecked, small crimes add up to big losses. In companies without dedicated fraud investigators, detecting and solving low-level crimes generally falls to managers and internal auditors. Financial Crime Investigation and Control offers tips, tools, and techniques to help professionals who lack investigative experience stem the tide of small financial crimes before it becomes a tsunami.

Inside you ll find expert guidance on investigating and uncovering common types of fraud, including:
Credit card fraud
Consumer fraud
Kickbacks
Bid rigging
Inflated invoices
Inventory theft
Theft of cash
Travel and subsistence claims
Check fraud
ID fraud
Ghost employees
Misappropriation schemes
Computer-related crime
Financial statement fraud
