Fraud is real. Dont risk it.

Two thirds of businesses perceive fraud to be a risk in their industry... but, less than one third have a fraud awareness programme or any educational programme relating to the threat of fraud.
~ Fraud Report 2009, BDO Stoy Hayward and the University of Portsmouth ~
Fraud is a grave crime but too few companies recognise that. It can exhaust the success out of a business or even cripple an organisation completely. As a response to these threats, companies are now employing external auditors to facilitate internal controls at a higher lever, but still, it is not enough. A holistic approach of combining the best of internal and external controls is most desired. Fraud and Financial Crimes 2010 rises up to this challenge. Get realistic solutions in combating these financial crimes with real-life case studies that will allow delegates the opportunity to get answers and different views on these issues.

ALARMING STATISTICS!
The average loss per company in 2009 amounted to $6.2 million. The number of companies experiencing theft of physical assets in the last three years (43%) increased from the 2008 figure (41%) and was the highest for any region.
~ Fraud Report 2009, Kroll ~

Co-founder and former CEO of telecommunications company WorldCom, Bernie Ebbers was convicted of fraud and conspiracy in the largest accounting scandal to date in US. The late Kenneth Lay was CEO of Enron from 1986 to 2002 and is infamous for his role in the corruption scandal that led to the downfall of the company. Ramalinga Raju, CEO of Satyam Computers, shocked the world in 7 January 2009 with a confession letter indicating that he has been fixing his companys books to overstate profits and assets. APBs former finance manager Chia Teck Leng had swindled four foreign banks of $117 million between 1999 and 2003 by faking documents in APBs name and forging top executives signatures. L&G owner, Kazutsugi Nami of Japan, tricked his investors into investing in Enten, a special electronic money which he promised would give them 26% annual returns, despite knowing they would not be able to pay the dividend promised on the investments.
