Learn how to defend against fraud and take appropriate steps to respond when fraud occurs.

Every year, organizations around the world lose billions of dollars in assets to fraud. Many CEOs and CFOs do not fully understand the fraud risks facing their organizations, which leaves them underprepared to defend against fraud and exposed to potentially debilitating losses.

This topic will detail the elements of fraud, the warning signs of fraud, effective anti-fraud measures, and the importance of creating an environment which is resistant to fraud. This material will further provide detailed examples of the major fraud categories, corresponding fraud schemes, red flags of those schemes, and real world examples of those schemes.
