Overview

You face an overtly confident subject of a fraud investigation across the interview table and you think to yourself: Why is he so confident? Is it that obvious that I don't know how to prove his guilt? There is no space left on your CV for another academic qualification and you've been doing this for a while now - why then do you feel so ill-prepared? You start to wish that you had the effortless guidance of your retired colleague. If he was here now, what gems of experience and tricks of the trade would he give you? Practical Insights for Fraud Professionals aims to do exactly that. It reads like on-the-job training and provides sound practical guidelines on how to conduct all elements associated with fraud investigation. Both new and seasoned fraud investigators will find value in these applied techniques.
