WR084923: How Fraud Can Affect Smaller Organizations
Many small to medium-sized companies do not properly address the risk that arises related to fraud, because these organizations do not have the resources needed to mitigate this risk or because owners or those in top-level management underestimate the scope of the issue. All organizations, regardless of size, must be aware of the risks associated with intentional fraudulent acts and know that a significant and effective fraud scheme could even create going concern issues for some entities. In this session, we delve into the reasons that fraud takes place. The material discusses the types of defalcations that are often executed against smaller entities and then explores measures that organizations can implement to help stop fraud activities and add security.
