Accountant's Guide to Fraud Detection and Control by Howard R. Davia

by Howard Silverstone

"Occupational fraud and abuse is a widespread problem that affects practically every organization, regardless of size, location, or industry. While the high-profile cases of Enron and Tyco have increased public awareness of this type of fraud, the truth remains that accidents or anonymous tips only detect about two-thirds of known fraud cases. Detection in this manner is extremely inadequate and also can be exceedingly costly for your company. Discover how to become proactive in detecting and preventing financial fraud in your organization with the tools and techniques in Fraud 101, Second Edition." Demonstrating where traditional methods of fraud detection fall short, Fraud 101 provides step-by-step guidance showing you how to perform a proactive fraud investigation.
