Fraud Risk Assessment

This is a process that identifies potential exposures and vulnerabilities to fraud, risks and strengths of existing controls.

Some benefits of conducting a fraud risk assessment include:

• Proactive Fraud Prevention: Instead of just reacting to fraud, a risk assessment allows an organization to identify weaknesses and implement controls before a fraud event occurs. This shifts the focus from detection to prevention.

• Protection of Financial Resources: By identifying and addressing risks, organizations can safeguard their assets and minimize the potential for significant financial losses that can result from embezzlement, asset misappropriation, or fraudulent financial reporting.

• Strengthened Internal Controls: The assessment process often reveals deficiencies in existing internal controls. This allows the organization to implement targeted improvements, such as improved financial oversight, segregation of duties, and enhanced transaction monitoring.

• Increased Operational Efficiency: Strong internal controls and a clear understanding of risk can lead to more efficient and transparent business processes. By streamlining workflows and automating certain checks, organizations can reduce inefficiencies and foster a culture of accountability.

Internal Control Review and Monitoring

Strong internal controls should be adapted in every organization that receives or spends any form of money. Unfortunately, fraud happens in every industry including non-profit organizations. The best and cheapest way to combat fraud in your organization is through implementing the necessary internal controls that will help prevent it from ever happening. This is known as fraud prevention. This service assists organizations in risk assessments, reviewing their internal controls, identifying possible areas where fraud could happen, and recommending steps and policies to improve those areas.
