Why Should You Attend:

With an increased awareness of fraud and the ongoing cost to organizations, an entity wide fraud risk assessment is imperative to all organizations. Performing a fraud risk assessment is doable, and can provide internal audit and its organization peace of mind for having gone through the process. Once it is completed, it only requires an annual review for additions of possible new fraud schemes and results from internal audit anti-fraud projects conducted during the year.

Internal fraud investigations can cause a lot of stress for an auditor, but simply following a set of guidelines can help to assure that the proper sequence of events occurs during the investigation process. It can sometimes determine the success or failure of an internal investigation.

Topic Background:

According to the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE) “Report to the Nations on Occupational Fraud and Abuse” published in 2012, it predicted that 5% of an organization’s revenue is lost to fraud. Performing a fraud risk assessment can seem like a daunting task for an organization. In reality, it can be done using a template and brainstorming with internal auditors, certified fraud examiners and business unit leaders throughout your organization. It doesn’t require having a CFE but it does help to have some exposure to fraud auditing and a mind for coming up with schemes that can occur in any control environment. The fraud risk assessment can be built to tie in with current Sarbanes Oxley Controls to help companies assess whether the current control environment can help deter fraud from occurring.

Internal fraud investigations are stressful, no matter what the situation; someone has been accused of something that is against the internal code of conduct. Having a template to follow in order to conduct a proper investigation is an integral part of conducting a complete and accurate investigation. When performed in the sequence that will be provided in class, a complete and accurate investigation can be the result.
