A strategic, practical, cost-effective approach to fraud
prevention

In troubled economic times, the risk of fraud and financial
crime increases. In our post credit crunch environment, new laws
and tougher penalties for financial crime mean that if you are in
business, you have a responsibility to help fight fraud.

However, to design effective, proportionate fraud controls for
your business, you need a complete picture of all the risks.
Managing Fraud Risk shows you where to look for fraud,
setting out a route-map for finding and fighting fraud risks in
your business, with the practical, strategic advice you need.

Combining the latest theory with forensic risk analysis, this
book reveals how you can provide assurance to your Board and
stakeholders. Practical examples are used to clearly show
cost-effective techniques for preventing and detecting business
fraud. An innovative fraud awareness quiz enables you to easily
apply the theories and principles.

* Answers questions such as: Who commits more fraud: men or
women? How many of your employees are prepared to falsify
documents?

* Essential information to ensure your procedures are sufficient
to meet compliance with new international legislation increasing
the liability of directors and managers in cases of fraud and
corruption

* Takes a new perspective from the point of view of business
risk, making it unique to other texts that take only an auditing,
investigative, or specialist approach

This route-map is essential reading to help you navigate the
complex landscape of business fraud.
