Have you ever asked yourself what kind of tools could be helpful to prevent and identify fraudulent actions or non-compliant behaviour?

If so, in this episode you will receive a first tool in form of a hypothesis at hand which I highly appreciate and – after so many years into that business – I use on a daily basis. Sometimes even unconsciously.

I talk about the drivers of fraud and where these come from. It is definitively not a new art at all.

I am convinced that it is essential to understand the different fraud drives when you are overseeing processes, businesses and people.

Methodologies, tools and approaches support us and are part – or become part – of a wider framework in your organisation. And for yourself.

Companies that have been successful for decades often have a corporate governance that is truly (pre-)lived and based on

·      ethical principles.

·      and values of integrity.

The three drivers of fraud are based on Cresseys analysis and final hypothesis. He developed the method of the so-called “Fraud Triangle”.

The hypothesis is based on three main sub-areas which we heard before: 

As already mentioned, this fraud triangle has been developed and refined over the years.

However, the simplicity of these three manifestations allows

·      a quick and

·      Reliable analysis

of possible offender profiles for hypothesis work, also under altered conditions, for example with new risks in the area of cybercrime.

Therefore I would like you to use the take-home assignment to practise the underlying hypothesis of fraud triangle

–       Trusted person

–       Financial problem

–       Own value system

Pick one of the latest news and identify these three key drivers. You will immediately see the interconnections of the hypothesis.
