Fraud Prevention and Detection

Book description

Most fraud cases could have been prevented or detected earlier if early warning signs had been taken seriously. This volume enables officers and directors to protect themselves and their entities against fraud by effectively detecting, analyzing, and acting before any damage can be done. Based on an empirically tested strategy, the book teaches readers how to find Red Flag indicators of fraud or suspicious transactions in financial statements, budgets, and contracts and know how to ensure that, once a Red Flag has been identified, appropriate action is taken.
