Fraud Detection and Investigation for Internal Auditors

Fraud detection and investigation for auditors tired of arriving late — the fraudster’s mindset, real cases and the full investigative life cycle worked hands-on.

The programme

Fraud gets more sophisticated as economies do, and the syndicates behind it invest in the latest technology faster than most audit functions can respond — auditors are usually catching up. This programme aims to put you ahead, or at least level, in fraud detection and investigation methodology before major harm reaches the organisation. The cohort works inside the fraudster’s mindset — how processes are exploited, how networks are used — through actual cases showing how the crimes were perpetrated and eventually caught. The method is hands-on casework: walking the investigative life cycle, weighing the available approaches, and documenting and reporting the investigation properly.

What you will do

Get ahead of fraud methodologies instead of perpetually catching up with the syndicates running them.
Think like the fraudster — how processes are exploited and how networks are used.
Work actual fraud cases to see how the crimes were perpetrated and how they were caught.
Run the investigative life cycle from first suspicion to closure, choosing among the available approaches.
Document and report an investigation to a standard the organisation can act on.

Who attends

  • Internal and external auditors
  • Bank credit and risk management teams
  • Operational controllers and risk officers
  • Finance personnel and senior management

Cohorts bring together board members, executives and the rising leaders behind them — kept deliberately small, so every seat is a peer’s.
