Understanding & Developing A FRAUD RISK MANAGEMENT PROGRAM for Your Organization – CFE International Consultancy Group Pte Ltd www.cfe-icg.com
Traditionally, the practice of risk management comprises acceptance, transference, elimination, control, sharing, insurance and avoidance of a diverse array of risks. Risk management and internal control business models have subsequently been devised which cater for all eventualities - categorised by terms such as business, operational and reputational risk. www.cfe-icg.com CFE International Consultancy Group Pte Ltd

www.cfe-icg.com CFE International Consultancy Group Pte Ltd If an organisation accepts that it is exposed to fraud – and no organisation is immune to fraud – the next step is to apportion responsibility for fraud risk management.
www.cfe-icg.com CFE International Consultancy Group Pte Ltd Historically, the management of fraud risk does not lie with any one particular department or practitioner. It can be handled internally or be outsourced, and how it is handled is affected by many variables such as organisational size, industry sector, geographical location, cultural dynamics - and management perception of the problem.

Regardless of these variables, any fraud prevention and control model should aim to achieve one, or all, of the five primary objectives:
Prevention
Deterrence
Disruption
Identification
Civil action/criminal prosecution
