Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Short Guide to Fraud Risk is for: * anyone who needs to better understand fraud risks, either company-wide, or in a specific business unit; * directors and managers who would like to add value by building fraud resistance into their organization and to demonstrate to shareholders, regulators or other stakeholders that they are managing fraud risks, rather than just reacting to incidents; * regulators, auditors and compliance professionals who need to assess the effectiveness of an organisation's fraud prevention measures. The book gives a concise but thorough introduction to the risk of fraud based on a six-element strategy. It includes practical steps to assess and treat fraud risks across an organisation, including those relating to executive directors. It also provides practical steps to develop fraud awareness across an organisation and how to implement an effective fraud detection and incident management program. The application of the principles is illustrated with example documents and numerous case studies aimed at assisting the reader to implement either individual elements or a complete fraud risk management strategy.
Download or read book Fighting Fraud and Corruption in the Humanitarian and Global Development Sector written by Oliver May and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-12 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are an estimated 40,000 international Non-Government Organisations (NGOs), working in an enormous global aid industry; official development assistance alone reached £90bn in 2014. This is supplemented by huge voluntary giving – the UK public, for example, give around £1bn a year to overseas causes. These organisations face a unique challenge from fraud and corruption. Operating in the world’s most under-developed and fragile environments, with minimal infrastructure and trust-based cultures, the risk is high. And, being wholly reliant on donors and supporters for income, so are the stakes. Researchers make different estimates of the scale of the problem facing the sector. Some research implies that losses to the global aid budget caused by occupational fraud and abuse may be in the billions of pounds, while those to the British public's voluntary overseas donations could be in the tens of millions. For many sector professionals working in the developing world, these estimates are readily believable. Fighting Fraud and Corruption in the Humanitarian and Global Development Sector by Oliver May is a timely, accessible and relevant how-to guide, which explores the scale and nature of the threat, debunks pervasive myths, and shows readers how to help their NGOs to better deter, prevent, detect and respond to fraud and corruption.

Download or read book BUSINESS PROCESS OUTSOURCING written by Prabhu TL and published by NestFame Creations Pvt Ltd.. This book was released on with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BPO (business process outsourcing) is a business activity in which a company hires an outside service provider to complete a critical business task. Typically, an organisation begins by identifying a process that is required for its operations but not part of its core value proposition in the market; this phase necessitates a thorough understanding of the organization's processes as well as effective business process management. Payroll and accounting processes, for example, are suitable for BPO since they are conducted the same or similarly from company to firm. Because these commodity operations don't usually distinguish one company from another, business leaders often decide that having their own employees conduct them isn't worth it. Companies believe that outsourcing these procedures to a business that specialises in them will produce better outcomes. The origins of BPO can be traced back to the manufacturing industry. After determining that third-party vendors could offer more skills, speed, and cost efficiency to the process than an in-house team could, manufacturers hired them to handle aspects of their supply chains. Organizations in other industries eventually embraced the practise. Organizations of many types — for-profit enterprises, nonprofits, and even government agencies — now contract with BPO service providers in the United States, throughout North America, and around the world to conduct a variety of tasks. What is the purpose of BPO? Business process outsourcing is used by companies for two types of tasks: back-office and front-office operations. Accounting, information technology (IT) services, human resources (HR), quality assurance, and payment processing are examples of back-office tasks, sometimes known as internal business functions. Customer service, marketing, and sales are all examples of front-office tasks. BPO contracts can entail outsourcing a whole functional area to a single vendor, such as the HR department. Specific processes within a functional area are frequently outsourced by companies. For example, a company might outsource payroll yet handle all other HR functions in-house.

Download or read book Managerial Fraud written by Terry A. Sheridan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-13 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most frauds perpetrated by senior managers take longer to uncover than those by other occupational groups and they steal more. This is a serious problem world-wide. Currently the Red Flag approach is used by auditors to prevent and uncover fraud and in some countries it is statutory. However, the existing approach does not catch managerial fraudsters quickly or very often. In Managerial Fraud, Dr Terry Sheridan reports the findings of her study of fraudulent executives. Her work illuminates the particular methods fraudsters employ to appear more authentic than the average person and reveals two types of executive fraudster with very different behaviours. All this helps to explain why the current Red Flag approach fails to identify potential fraudsters and instead tends to focus on Red Flag executives who are negative characters, but non-fraudulent and accounts for the problem auditors face, who see Red Flag indicators and are obliged to conduct further audits, yet find nothing of substance. During the author’s research, the innocent colleagues who worked closely with fraudulent managers have for the first time been interviewed about their experiences and had their impressions analysed, leading to the development of an innovative typology of fraudulent executives based on Impression Management Theory. Better understanding of what Dr Sheridan has uncovered might result in organisations being able to reduce their exposure to fraud perpetrated by their own senior management.
