Investigation services

Helping you and your counsel gain clarity and confidence in a crisis

Fraud and economic crime can pop up anywhere — from financial misrepresentation, misappropriation, embezzlement and Ponzi schemes, to corruption or cybercrime. While fraudulent behavior often cultivates in an environment where individuals see an opportunity to circumvent processes, procedures or controls for personal gain, today’s fraud schemes are increasingly complex in nature.

Whether the fraud investigation is local or international, internal in nature, or in response to an enforcement action, regulatory compliance issue, or litigation, the thoroughness and quality of your investigation will affect what happens next. You need to get down to the heart of the matter - and quickly.

How we can help

Be prepared before an incident happens

Ensure that your company has robust anti-fraud policies, procedures and controls to both prevent and detect fraud, as well as mitigate and manage risk.  

Our team of forensic accountants and investigators have indepth experience in how frauds are committed. We use this knowledge to assist companies in establishing compliance, regulatory and business integrity frameworks focused on fraud prevention and detection. This includes helping clients review governance structures, conduct fraud risk assessments, design and implement policies, procedures and internal controls. We also train employees and contractors, and conduct management evaluation and testing using data analytics to assist management with the detection of red flags.

The outcome? An anti-fraud framework that can help you in deterring fraudulent behavior as well as timely detection of such behavior, reducing the financial loss and improving potential for cost recoveries.
