FRAUD INVESTIGATION
Crime comes in many forms. Fraud sometimes finds its way into the banking world, and the
damage it can do is sadly extensive. Businesses, and indeed, individuals are destroyed by
this crime. CFE-In-Practice, takes fraud very seriously. We are the Certified Fraud
Examiners in practice. We are licensed by the Singapore Police (License No. 02496) to
provide investigation service. We are the fraud specialists who can help.


WHAT DOES A CERTIFIED FRAUD EXAMINER DO?

A Certified Fraud Examiner is responsible for resolving allegations of fraud, obtaining
evidence, taking statements, writing reports, testifying to findings, and assisting in the
prevention and detection of fraud and white-collar crime.


WHO UTILIZES CERTIFIED FRAUD EXAMINERS?

Most corporations as well as governmental agencies in the United States and throughout the
world employ certified fraud examiners. CFE is one of the three preferred and recognised
qualification by the Central Intelligence Agency of the United States of America in its
recruitment for auditors. Certified Fraud Examiners are charged with investigating a wide
variety of allegations of fraud, primarily within their own organizations. Certified Fraud
Examiners can also provide investigative and consulting services to law firms, business
enterprises, and others in the area of litigation support, fraud investigation, and fraud
prevention.


Fraud occurs when all the following exist:
       an individual or an organisation intentionally makes an untrue representation about
       an important fact or event;
       the untrue representation is believed by the victim (the person or organisation to
       whom the representation has been made);
       the victim relies upon and acts upon the untrue representation;
       the victim suffers loss of money and/or property as a result of relying upon and acting
       upon the untrue representation.


Every corporation needs a channel through which employees, suppliers, contractors and
other third parties can report irregular activities, free from victimisation or repercussions.

The primary means of detecting fraud will and should always remain a sound system of
internal control and regular internal audits. These measures should be supplemented with a
fraud-reporting channel where information regarding fraud, theft and corruption is collected,
and decisive corrective and protective steps are taken to limit the bank's exposure to further
or future loss.

Most companies have embraced the concept of a crime-reporting channel through which
interested parties can report irregular activities by staff, outside individuals or companies
towards their organisation.

The costs involved in installing such a channel have proved prohibitive to many companies, or
the cost involved is not considered justified in light of their perceived problem. CFE-In-
Practice has provided a solution to this problem by providing an effective cost efficient service
as an alternative to the products currently on the market.

Investigative Service:

          Collecting and safeguarding evidence
          Tracing witnesses and suspects
          Compiling affidavits and taking statements
          Surveillance
          Interviewing and questioning witnesses and suspects
          Facilitating polygraph examinations
          Facilitating expert document examinations
          Verifying witness testimony

          Preparing comprehensive financial profiles on individuals and companies
          Asset tracing & recovery
          Money laundering investigations


Frauds can, and do, last for many years. Often it is not the existing level of internal controls
that uncovers them but some external factor.

Banks will never be able to eliminate fraud. You have limited time, and you cannot review
everything all of the time.

However, some controls are critical - failure to implement them can cost you and your
company.

We help banks identify these key controls and implement cost effective monitoring of them.

We work with corporations and government divisions to develop pro-active detection
methods, to improve the skills of staff in recognising fraud patterns, and to help senior
management form planned responses to potential problems.

Understanding Assets and Liabilities Management through
Balance Sheet Analysis - MODULE 1
VENUE: TWO DAYS COACHING SESSION
PROGRAM DATE: To be arranged

INTRODUCTION:

What every utility company needs now is more transparency and less protocol. The days of
faking it to make it is over. Every forward looking and effective CEO desires the focus to be
on the defense of the core business, getting the house in order, improve planning and
procurement and of course optimizing cost. None of these will happen if there is no
appreciation of sound financial management.
Understanding Assets and Liabilities Management through Balance Sheet Analysis -
MODULE 1
is a no nonsense technical hands-on program in which the participants will receive
comprehensive instruction on accounting and economics aspects of financial analysis that
evaluate the performance of the company and the division. After discussion of the theory and
real world aspects of understanding the limitations of financial statements, the course moves
to interpretation, where you will follow the lead of the instructor in building your own
techniques in performing the interpretation of financial statements. As the course progresses,
you will perform more work on an independent basis using actual real life case studies to
assess various kinds of risk. It is all about decision making through financial management.
This program is designed and pegged at Introductory and Intermediate Level for participants
who may have some background in business administration. It is equally suitable for senior
management who may need a refresher course on why they are there.

Background and Objective

The purpose of this coaching session is to establish basic principles and essential
procedures and to provide guidance on the auditor’s responsibility to consider fraud in

profession.
It is to light the fire in the belly once again for those who truly loves the calling of the
internal audit profession.
This program distinguishes fraud from error and describes the two types of fraud that
are relevant to the auditor, that is, misstatements resulting from misappropriation of
assets and misstatements resulting from fraudulent financial reporting; describes the
respective responsibilities of those charged with governance and the management of
the entity for the prevention and detection of fraud, describes the inherent limitations
of an
audit in the context of fraud, and sets out the responsibilities of the auditor for
detecting material misstatements due to fraud;
This program also train the auditor to maintain an attitude of professional skepticism
recognizing the possibility that a material misstatement due to fraud could exist,
notwithstanding the auditor’s past experience with the entity about the honesty and
integrity of management and those charged with governance;

  • 8. CFE-In-Practice ADDITIONAL INFORMATION IS AVAILABLE ON LINE AT www.cfe-in-practice.com FRAUD INVESTIGATION Crime comes in many forms. Fraud sometimes finds its way into the banking world, and the damage it can do is sadly extensive. Businesses, and indeed, individuals are destroyed by this crime. CFE-In-Practice, takes fraud very seriously. We are the Certified Fraud Examiners in practice. We are licensed by the Singapore Police (License No. 02496) to provide investigation service. We are the fraud specialists who can help. WHAT DOES A CERTIFIED FRAUD EXAMINER DO? A Certified Fraud Examiner is responsible for resolving allegations of fraud, obtaining evidence, taking statements, writing reports, testifying to findings, and assisting in the prevention and detection of fraud and white-collar crime. WHO UTILIZES CERTIFIED FRAUD EXAMINERS? Most corporations as well as governmental agencies in the United States and throughout the world employ certified fraud examiners. CFE is one of the three preferred and recognised qualification by the Central Intelligence Agency of the United States of America in its recruitment for auditors. Certified Fraud Examiners are charged with investigating a wide variety of allegations of fraud, primarily within their own organizations. Certified Fraud Examiners can also provide investigative and consulting services to law firms, business enterprises, and others in the area of litigation support, fraud investigation, and fraud prevention. Fraud occurs when all the following exist: an individual or an organisation intentionally makes an untrue representation about an important fact or event; the untrue representation is believed by the victim (the person or organisation to whom the representation has been made); the victim relies upon and acts upon the untrue representation; the victim suffers loss of money and/or property as a result of relying upon and acting upon the untrue representation. Every corporation needs a channel through which employees, suppliers, contractors and other third parties can report irregular activities, free from victimisation or repercussions. The primary means of detecting fraud will and should always remain a sound system of internal control and regular internal audits. These measures should be supplemented with a fraud-reporting channel where information regarding fraud, theft and corruption is collected, and decisive corrective and protective steps are taken to limit the bank's exposure to further or future loss. Most companies have embraced the concept of a crime-reporting channel through which interested parties can report irregular activities by staff, outside individuals or companies towards their organisation. The costs involved in installing such a channel have proved prohibitive to many companies, or the cost involved is not considered justified in light of their perceived problem. CFE-In- Practice has provided a solution to this problem by providing an effective cost efficient service as an alternative to the products currently on the market. 8 CFE-In-Practice Integrity.

Often it is not the existing level of internal controls that uncovers them but some external factor. Banks will never be able to eliminate fraud. You have limited time, and you cannot review everything all of the time. However, some controls are critical - failure to implement them can cost you and your company. We help banks identify these key controls and implement cost effective monitoring of them. We work with corporations and government divisions to develop pro-active detection methods, to improve the skills of staff in recognising fraud patterns, and to help senior management form planned responses to potential problems.

CFE-In-Practice ADDITIONAL INFORMATION IS AVAILABLE ON LINE AT www.cfe-in-practice.com Understanding Assets and Liabilities Management through Balance Sheet Analysis - MODULE 1 VENUE: TWO DAYS COACHING SESSION PROGRAM DATE: To be arranged INTRODUCTION: What every utility company needs now is more transparency and less protocol. The days of faking it to make it is over. Every forward looking and effective CEO desires the focus to be on the defense of the core business, getting the house in order, improve planning and procurement and of course optimizing cost. None of these will happen if there is no appreciation of sound financial management. Understanding Assets and Liabilities Management through Balance Sheet Analysis - MODULE 1 is a no nonsense technical hands-on program in which the participants will receive comprehensive instruction on accounting and economics aspects of financial analysis that evaluate the performance of the company and the division. After discussion of the theory and real world aspects of understanding the limitations of financial statements, the course moves to interpretation, where you will follow the lead of the instructor in building your own techniques in performing the interpretation of financial statements. As the course progresses, you will perform more work on an independent basis using actual real life case studies to assess various kinds of risk. It is all about decision making through financial management.
