This fraud investigation training will teach attendees best practices for preparing and implementing fraud response plan. Learn how to conduct E-Discovery and forensic data analytics.
That being the case, it is essential for all organizations to have in place a carefully planned and readily executable fraud response plan. The objective of such a plan is of course to minimize damage from the fraud. But too many organizations make the mistake of limiting their response plans to minimizing financial losses only. They forget that reputational damage from fraud can be equally if not more harmful than financial misappropriation. It is also important to know when to launch a full-fledged and potentially costly fraud investigation and when not to. The line is not always clear, especially if a specific manager has not been assigned responsibility for incident response.
This webinar will help to clarify the pros and cons of initiating an investigation, implementing loss recovery measures, taking legal action against suspected perpetrator(s) and implementing controls to prevent similar incidents from occurring again.
