QVF Group Fraud Investigators Civil Risk Management: Fraud Investigation

Fraud is an umbrella term relating to a variety of fraudulent activities occurring within an organisation or being perpetrated against it externally. Attention must be given to the prevention, detection and investigation of all internal frauds by employees and by external third parties such as suppliers, contractors or customers.

Fraud and other economic crime can be perpetrated by an individual who may be working within the business or when staff are colluding with a person or persons operating outside the business. It may also be committed entirely by a person or persons operating externally without internal assistance.

In particular, where the integrity of senior management is suspect then this requires a thorough, professionally driven, independent examination.

Any business or individual can become a victim of fraud but robust systems and controls can prevent or minimise the risks.

Fraud can have a detrimental effect on morale within an organisation and therefore 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, policies regarding the acceptance of gratuities, gifts and business ethics should all be determined, documented and fully endorsed by senior management.

QVF Group has significant expertise across all areas of malfeasance or fraud committed either by individuals or organised crime. This includes such matters as money laundering, corruption, misappropriation or concealment of assets, insurance fraud and procurement fraud.
