Session Synopsis

Identifying fraud is just the tip of the iceberg – often what happens next determines whether an organization resolves the issue efficiently or creates new risks in the process.  We’ll take a look at how to develop a clear, complete, and mutual understanding of the actions needed to respond once fraud surfaces, without relying on improvised decision-making or institutional memory.  The session will first use a real-world scenario to identify “what not to do” moments and then delve into practical steps an organization can take to determine how and when to respond to fraud events.
