Fraud can occur in any organization and is not always committed by an obvious suspect. Understanding why fraud occurs, recognizing how it is carried out, and combining awareness, strong controls, and accountability are critical to prevention and early detection.
Join PYA’s Jessica Scouten and Michelle Smith for an introduction to occupational fraud, including who commits it, why fraud occurs, how fraud schemes are carried out, warning signs to recognize, and controls and practices that can help reduce fraud risk.
