This presentation explores the various ways to mitigate risk, especially in the corporate sector as it pertains to organizational fraud.

While red flags can be identified, without employing strategies to mitigate risk, schemes perpetrated by trusted personnel can run in the tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of dollars. This presentation is geared towards defining fraud and embezzlement, identifying the nature of occupational fraud schemes, and detailing several risk mitigation techniques that can be employed immediately. After this presentation, professionals working with their clients can identify several internal controls that can be employed immediately. Modern-day forensic investigative technology including data analytics, textual analytics, and sentiment analysis will also be reviewed and detailed as to their role in identifying indicia of fraud.
