The risk of fraud is just one of the many types of risks to be managed by an organization. But to let this risk fall out of focus can bring catastrophic results. Building an effective fraud risk management program to combat organizational fraud requires solid understanding of how and why fraud is perpetrated. This course will discuss the components of a fraudulent act, different types of fraud schemes and the impact fraud has on organizations. It will also analyze why individuals commit fraud and why the threat of punishment alone doesn’t deter potential fraudsters.
Why Should You Attend:
The field of risk management has attracted increased mainstream attention in the wake of the economic meltdown as the public has begun to comprehend the negative effects of uncontained risk. Unfortunately, many risk management professionals tend to underestimate the role of fraud in the scope of their professional duties.
With organizations losing an estimated 5 percent of their annual revenues to fraud, the need for a strong anti-fraud stance and proactive, comprehensive approach to combating fraud is clear. As organizations increase their focus on risk, they should take the opportunity to consider, enact and improve measures to detect, deter and prevent fraud. Without clear, defined objectives, a fraud risk management program cannot be effective.

• Learn how to set program objectives and define risk appetite as the first step in building the program.
