About this publication
The Anti-Financial Crime Compendium is a collaborative collection of volumes across the full financial crime landscape. The volumes are designed to be conversational and provide an inter-connected network of insights that only seasoned professionals would know. The contributing authors are all experts within their respective domains and share their end-to-end practical tips, tools and tricks.
In this volume we discuss Conducting Effective Fraud Investigations:
You are sitting across the interview table from an overtly confident subject of a fraud investigation and you are thinking to yourself: Why is he so confident? Is it that obvious that you don’t know how to prove his guilt?
There isn’t any more space on your CV for another academic qualification and you’ve been doing this for a while now; why then do you feel so ill-prepared? You start to wish that you had the effortless guidance of your now retired colleague. If he was here now, what gems of experience and tricks of the trade would he give you?
This volume aims to do exactly that. It does not read like a typical textbook that is full of theory. It is conversational in style and designed to read like ‘on-the-job’ training. It provides sound practical guidelines, based on years of experience, on which investigation steps to undertake and how to conduct all elements associated with fraud investigations.
Both new and seasoned fraud practitioners will find value in these applied techniques.
