Fraud in banking can take several forms and be perpetrated by both insiders and outsiders. The document defines bank fraud and discusses the Reserve Bank of India's role in monitoring fraud cases in the banking sector. It also outlines some common types of fraud committed by insiders, such as deposit account frauds, purchased bill frauds, and loan frauds. Fraud by outsiders is also discussed, including bill discounting fraud, forgery of altered checks, and accounting fraud. The causes of banking fraud are described as well as the banker's responsibility to protect against deception and loss.

This project demonstrates a machine learning approach to detecting credit card fraud using advanced algorithms and techniques. The project utilizes a dataset containing various features such as transaction amount, merchant location, time of transaction, and others to build a predictive model. The presentation covers data preprocessing steps, feature engineering techniques, and the selection of machine learning algorithms such as logistic regression or random forest. It also discusses model evaluation metrics and the importance of fraud detection in financial institutions for safeguarding against fraudulent activities.

The initial stage of the supply chain process is the planning stage. We need to develop a plan or strategy in order to address how the products and services will satisfy the demands and necessities of the customers. In this stage, the planning should mainly focus on designing a strategy that yields maximum profit.
For managing all the resources required for designing products and providing services, a strategy has to be designed by the companies. Supply chain management mainly focuses on planning and developing a set of metrics.
1.4.2) Develop (Source)
After planning, the next step involves developing or sourcing. In this stage, we mainly concentrate on building a strong relationship with Develop of the raw materials required for
production. This involves not only identifying dependable suppliers but also determining different planning methods for shipping, delivery, and payment of the product.
Companies need to select suppliers to deliver the items and services they require to develop their product. So, in this stage, the supply chain managers need to construct a set of pricing, delivery and payment processes with suppliers and also create the metrics for controlling and improving the relationships.
Finally, the supply chain managers can combine all these processes for handling their goods and services inventory. This handling comprises receiving and examining shipments, transferring them to the manufacturing facilities and authorizing supplier payments.
1.4.3) Make
The third step in the supply chain management process is the manufacturing or making of products that were demanded by the customer. In this stage, the products are designed, produced, tested, packaged, and synchronized for delivery.
Here, the task of the supply chain manager is to schedule all the activities required for manufacturing, testing, packaging and preparation for delivery. This stage is considered as the most metric-intensive unit of the supply chain, where firms can e gauge the quality levels, production output and worker productivity.
Fraud could take the form of misstatement of information or misappropriation of the assets of the entity. Components in a fraudulent activity include dishonest intention, Use of deception (trick), Personal advantage or loss to a third person, and Financial/asset loss to an organization and may involve financial misstatements.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

CHAPTER 2
FRAUDS IN BANKING
DEFINITION
Bank fraud
Bank fraud is the use of potentially illegal means to obtain money,
assets, or other property owned or held by a financial institution, or to obtain
money from depositors by fraudulently posing as a bank or other financial
institution.
“A deliberate act of omission or commission by any person, carried out in
the course of a banking transaction or in the books of account maintained
manually or under computer system in banks, resulting into wrongful gain to
any person for a temporary period or otherwise, with or without any monetary
loss to the bank.”
Definition of the term ‘Fraud by RBI
Fraud can loosely be defined as “any behaviour by which one person
intends to gain a dishonest advantage over another". In other words, fraud is an
act or omission which is intended to cause wrongful gain to one person and
wrongful loss to the other, either by way of concealment of facts or otherwise.
4. FRAUDS IN BANKING
TYBFM Page 4
Fraud, under Section 17 of the Indian Contract Act, 1872, includes any of the
following acts committed by a party to a contract, or with his connivance, or by
his agents, with intent to deceive another party thereto or his agent, or to induce
him to enter into the contract.
Though Reserve Bank of India had not given a specific definition of the
term, it has, for quite some time now, been monitoring the nature, volume and
magnitude of frauds in certain sections of the financial sector that fall under its
jurisdiction.
The reporting of fraud cases by banks was prescribed by RBI way back
in July 1970.
In 2005-06, the prescription of reporting of fraud cases was extended to
urban cooperative banks and deposit taking NBFCs registered with RBI.
In March 2012, NBFC-ND-SIs (systemically important, non-deposit
taking NBFCs) having asset base of Rs. 100 crore and above were also brought
under the reporting requirements.
While online reporting and monitoring of fraud cases by the banks has
been in place since May 2004, the reporting by UCBs and NBFCs is still in
manual format.

CAUSES OF FRAUDS IN BANKING
1. Greed
good old fashioned human nature intervenes when an individual, or group
of individuals, sees a chance to make ‘a fast buck’. A good example being those
cases where people ‘adjust’ their expense claims upwards.
2. Lack of transparency
Complex financial transactions that are difficult to understand are an ideal
method to hide a fraud. The Barings fraud was perpetrated by use of an
accounting ‘dump account’ that no one understood.
3. Poor management information
Where a company’s management information system does not produce
results that are timely, accurate, sufficiently detailed and relevant; the warning
signals of a fraud, such as ongoing theft from the bank account, can be
obscured.
4. Excessively generous performance bonus payments
The more generous the bonus, when coupled to a demanding target; the
more temptation there is to manipulate results, such as yearend sales figures, to
reach that target.
6. FRAUDS IN BANKING
TYBFM Page 6
5. Non independent internal audit department
Where an organisation’s internal audit department is not independent, e.g.
where it does not report to a truly independent audit committee but to the
Finance Director, the more likely that when there are signals that a fraud is
occurring the more likely they will be ignored. It is indeed interesting to note
that Cynthia Cooper (Head of Internal Audit at WorldCom) had to bypass her
boss (the CFO) and go directly to the audit committee to report the discovery of
the capital expenditure fraud.
6. Lack of clear moral direction from senior management
leadership comes from the top. Where the senior management indulge
themselves in ‘semi corrupt’ behaviour, e.g. adjusting their expense claims
upwards, others will follow adopting the well worn mantra ‘everyone’s at it’.
7. Excessively complex organisational structure
Designed to obfuscate the revenue streams; and so hide reality from third
parties, such as the Internal Revenue.

TYPES OF BANK FRAUD BY INSIDER
1. Deposit Account Frauds:
Accounts opened without introduction or with improper introduction,
frauds under this head are generally attempted at the time of opening of new
branch when such emphasis is not paid on objection of introduction. Once the
account is opened , the miscreant deposits, stolen/materially altered cheques for
collection/payment etc. A dormant account is fraudulently operated by a forger
on forged signatures. Specimen signature card or signatures on letters are
utilized as models. Joint accounts are operated by one of the signatories (forger)
by forging the signatures of others. Mini deposit collections are not deposited
by the collecting banker.
The banker manipulates the depositor’s Pass Book.
2. Purchased Bill Frauds:
The frauds in this area are often costly. They can take the following forms:
Bogus or stolen railway receipts and motor transport receipts
accompanied by counterfeit bills are discounted.
Fake bills with inflated value, drawn on sister concerns, for discounts.
Genuine bills and railway are presented and got discounted from the
bank but the material is got released from the railways on indemnity
bond.
Bogus bills for worthless goods are discounted on the strength of
dispatch papers.
10. FRAUDS IN BANKING
TYBFM Page 10
3. Hypothecation Frauds:
Cash advances, against pledged goods, as security are fertile fields for
frauds. Stocks or part thereof, are removed unauthorised from the god owns.
Advance against pledge/hypothecation of securities, pledging inferior quality
of goods, overvaluation of stocks.
4. Loan Frauds:
The general policy of the government is to encourage loans to
agriculturists or to small artisans and businessmen. Infect, certain targets for
these purposes are fixed for the banks. In the initial stages, it resulted in
losses to the banks due to lack of expertise in the field.
The following types of fraud were perpetrated.
Loans are taken by different persons on the same time.
Nomadic artisans obtain loans and vanish from the scene.
False firms appear everywhere and obtain loans.
Loans taken for agricultural development were later used as marriage
celebrations.
In connivance with the suppliers, farm machinery bills were inflated
for accessories which were never supplied and included in the bills.
Farm machinery purchased with loans and hypothecated to banks is
sold without informing the banks or returning the loans.
These frauds normally take place with the active involvement of staff or
where the books are exposed to the members of public. In such cases,
subsequently the record is destroyed.
11. FRAUDS IN BANKING
TYBFM Page 11
5. Cash shortages
Cash the most sensitive asset of the bank is prone to fraud. The
shortages of fraud there is generally due to carelessness/negligence of the
concerned staff who are the joint custodians of cash.
6. Frauds in Borrower accounts
Advance against clean/documentary bills purchased/discounted. The
borrower committed frauds by tendering fake bills/accommodation
bills/cheques for discounting. Later when the bills/cheques are received
unpaid, the banks find it difficult to recover the amount.
Advance under some priority sector schemes.
Advance granted in haste or at the behest of top management or any pressure
or some consideration.
Incomplete credit information, lack of post disbursement supervision.
Miss-use of discretionary powers or exceeding discretionary powers by
Managers /Officers.
7. Frauds in Investment Portfolios
Investment portfolio which constitutes a big chunk of the total assets
of a bank is another fraud prone area. The dealer in securities in the absence
of proper policy, direction and adequate system of checks and balances may
misuse the position for his personal gains to the detriment of bank’s interest
by putting through deals for passing on business to the brokers which are
otherwise not warranted by business considerations.
12. FRAUDS IN BANKING
TYBFM Page 12
8. Frauds in Foreign Exchange Areas
Frauds in this area are perpetrated in the dealing room operations,
documentary credits, export-import transactions, packing credit etc.
Some of the dealers have been put through fictitious deals with the help of
brokers due to lack of back-up functions.
9. Frauds in computerized environment
Hardware errors disable the working of any of the component of
hardware with a view to creating/temporary/permanent malfunction to either
destroy the data or present its disclosure for security. Program errors are
created by miscreants to cripple the system or to siphon off the funds to
unauthorized accounts or to prevent/reduce charges to select accounts. Data
entry errors are created by staff to give undue gain to interested accounts.
Errors are made to give a wrong picture of sensitive data such as balances,
classification of advances, outstanding dues, interest rate applied etc.
10. Frauds in inter branch and inter bank accounts.
Debiting bank accounts without remitting cash. Debiting branch
adjusting account without remitting cash. Adjusting branch books-clean
cash. Fraudulently debiting/ crediting Head office account. Debiting/ Credit
in various deposit accounts without authority.

TYBFM Page 13
BANKER’S RESPONSIBILITY IN A FRAUD
Bank frauds crop up in all spheres of banking dealing, like: Cheque
frauds, Deposit account frauds, Purchased bill frauds, Hypothecation frauds,
Loan frauds etc. A dishonest banker can play havoc with the bank’s money.
The bank has therefore to sentinel itself and its customer’s against the deceitful
employee. The vicinity of business of the banker is extensive. The following
operational avenues have been noticed time and again.
Manipulation of cash by those handling cash, misappropriation of
customer’s deposit accounts, misappropriation of money in telegraphic
transfers, clearing forged cheques and other instruments, fraudulently while
working in clearing departments, creaming of the sundry accounts, tinkering
with the central accounts, accepting counterfeit currency for a consideration,
helping the bank robber, by giving information etc.
An analysis of frauds reported by banks to RBI broadly indicated that fraud.
Perpetrated on banks could be classified into the following categories
Misappropriation of cash tendered by the banks constituents and
misappropriations of cash remittance.
Withdrawal from deposit accounts through forged
documents/instruments.
Fraudulent encashment of negotiable instruments by opening an account
in fake /fictitious name.
14. FRAUDS IN BANKING

CHAPTER 4
FRAUDS BY OUTSIDER
The customers or outsiders, the word “Fraud” has been defined in
the Indian Contract Act. In short fraud is dishonesty leading to loss to someone.
Dishonesty is never accidental. Therefore there is always a swindler behind
each bank fraud. The number of bank frauds in India is substantial. It is
increasing with the passage of time. Bank frauds are due to the bunko and the
bungler bankers, situational pressures and permissive attitudes. Fraud has not
been defined in the Indian Penal Code directly. However sections dealing with
cheating, concealment, forgery, counterfeiting, misappropriation and breach of
trust cover the same adequately. Hence what this paper fundamentally tries to
focus on is on the banker’s responsibility vis-à-vis the reach of deception
therein, consequences of such incident and tries to look into the entire possible
panacea to such a menace in the society.
1. Bill Discounting Fraud
Bill discounting fraud refers to a type of fraud in which a fraudster
presents himself/herself as a genuine, profitable customer before a bank by
using a company. After that the company will regularly and repeatedly use the
bank to get payment from one or more of its customers and thereby give the
bank the picture of a desired customer. Since the customers in question are part
of the fraud these payments are always made. They will also actively pay any
and all bills raised by the bank. Eventually, when the bank is happy with the
company, the company will request the bank to settle its balance with the
company before billing the customer. Even after this, the fraudulent company
will carry on business along with its fraudulent customers and the unwitting
16. FRAUDS IN BANKING
TYBFM Page 16
bank. When the outstanding balance between the bank and the company is
sufficiently large, the company will take away the payment from the bank.
Subsequently the company and its customers will disappear leaving no-one to
pay the bills issued by the bank.
2. Forgery and Altered Cheques
A check that bears a forged signature of the drawer or payee is generally
not properly payable from the customer’s account because the bank is not
following the instructions of the depositor precisely as he gave them. The bank
is expected to be familiar with the authorized signature of its depositor. If it
pays such a check, Article 4 will treat the transaction as one in which the bank
paid out its own funds, rather than the depositor’s funds.
3. Accounting Fraud
The intentional misrepresentation or alteration of accounting
records regarding sales, revenues, expenses and other factors for a profit
motive such as inflating company stock values, obtaining
more favorable financing or avoiding debt obligations. Employees who commit
accounting fraud at the request of their employers are subject
to personal criminal prosecution.
4. Stolen Cheques Frauds:
Cheque frauds include frauds relating to customer’s cheques, banker’s
cheques (drafts) or traveller’s cheques. They are the most important frauds both
loss-wise.
17. FRAUDS IN BANKING
TYBFM Page 17
They take the following forms:
Issuance of Cheque Book under fake authority, frauds of this type have
taken place where the miscreants have first successfully obtained the
chequebook in the customer’s account and later got encased cheques
under forged signatures.
Frauds due to payment of materially altered cheques etc, these types of
frauds are very common. The miscreant obtains/steals the cheque,
materially alters the particulars of cheques and presents over the counter
for payment/collection in the account with introduction/fake introduction.
Payments of cheques under forged signatures, such types of frauds are
generally perpetrated by the employees/partners of the account-holders.
Stolen Drafts/TPO leaves and issuing drafts on other branch without
consideration under forged signature or otherwise, such types of frauds
are committed by the staff as well as outsiders.
5. Credit Card Fraud
Credit card fraud is a form of identity theft that involves an unauthorized taking
of another’s credit card information for the purpose of charging purchases to the
account or removing funds from it. Federal law limits cardholders’ liability to in
the event of credit card theft, but most banks will waive this amount if the
cardholder signs an affidavit explaining the theft.
18. FRAUDS IN BANKING
TYBFM Page 18
Credit card fraud schemes generally fall into one of two categories of
fraud: application fraud and account takeover.
1) Application Fraud
Application fraud refers to the unauthorized opening of credit card
accounts in another person's name. This may occur if a perpetrator can obtain
enough personal information about the victim to completely fill out the credit
card application, or is able to create convincing counterfeit documents.
Application fraud schemes are serious because a victim may learn about the
fraud too late, if ever.
2) Account Takeovers
Account takeovers typically involve the criminal hijacking of an
existing credit card account, a practice by which a perpetrator obtains enough
personal information about a victim to change the account's billing address.
6. Booster Cheques
A booster cheque is a fraudulent or bad cheque used to make a payment
to a credit card account in order to "bust out" or raise the amount of available
credit on otherwise-legitimate credit cards. The amount of the cheque is credited
to the card account by the bank as soon as the payment is made, even though the
cheque has not yet cleared. Before the bad cheque is discovered, the perpetrator
goes on a spending spree or obtains cash advances until the newly-"raised"
available limit on the card is reached. The original cheque then bounces, but by
then it is already too late.
Identity theft is also includes in frauds by outsider

5. Non independent internal audit department
Where an organisation’s internal audit department is not independent, e.g.
where it does not report to a truly independent audit committee but to the
Finance Director, the more likely that when there are signals that a fraud is
occurring the more likely they will be ignored. It is indeed interesting to note
that Cynthia Cooper (Head of Internal Audit at WorldCom) had to bypass her
boss (the CFO) and go directly to the audit committee to report the discovery of
the capital expenditure fraud.
6. Lack of clear moral direction from senior management
leadership comes from the top. Where the senior management indulge
themselves in ‘semi corrupt’ behaviour, e.g. adjusting their expense claims
upwards, others will follow adopting the well worn mantra ‘everyone’s at it’.
7. Excessively complex organisational structure
Designed to obfuscate the revenue streams; and so hide reality from third
parties, such as the Internal Revenue.

popularity with consumers and businesses. More than half of the 100 largest
banks in the United States offer mobile banking and approximately 19 million .
households use this service. Analysts estimate use of mobile banking will

CHAPTER -3
FRAUDS BY INSIDERS
Bank frauds are the creation of professional criminals, desperate
customers or of errant bankers or their collusion inter se. However the prima
donna in the drama is the insider or the banker. He opens the purse. He is often
the target and at times the tool. Occasionally, he is the victim of the temptations.
Other contributory factors are incompetence, lethargy, negligence, connivance
and ignorance.
Situational pressures and permissive attitudes of the society promote
them. High gains and low stakes encourage the incidence. The rising trend
makes it more and more important that ways and means are found to combat the
menace. Fraud is any dishonest act and behaviour by which one person gains or
intends to gain an advantage over other person. The gain may accrue to the
person himself or to some on else. Fraud causes loss to the victim, directly or
indirectly. In earthly terms bank frauds include all sorts of misappropriations,
embezzlements, manipulations of negotiable instruments (cheques, drafts,
hundies , bills or statements of accounts, securities etc.). Also included are
misrepresentations, cheating, thefts, undue favours and irregularities.
The frauds may be intentional or incidental and can be committed by
1. The bank employees themselves,
2. The staff members of the banks in collusion or connivance with the
customers or outsiders.

Whistle Blower Policy
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has introduced a whistleblower policy
for private and foreign banks that allows customers, shareholders, NGOs and
other members of the public to complain in confidence.
The complaints could relate to corruption, misuse of office, criminal
offences, suspected/actual frauds and failure to comply with rules. Public sector
banks and the RBI were already covered under the Central Vigilance
Commission (CVC) which is the 'designated agency' to receive written
complaints or disclosure on any allegation of corruption or misuse of office and
recommend appropriate action.
Fraud Policy
Incidence of frauds, robberies, etc., in banks is a matter of concern.
While the primary responsibility of preventing frauds lies with banks
themselves, Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has been advising them from time to
time about the major fraud prone areas and the safeguards necessary for
prevention of frauds. RBI has also been circulating to banks, the details of
frauds of an ingenious nature, not reported earlier so that banks could introduce
necessary safeguards / preventive measures by way of appropriate procedures
and internal checks. Banks are also being advised about the details of
unscrupulous borrowers and related parties who have perpetrated frauds on
other banks so that they could exercise caution while dealing with them. To
facilitate this ongoing process, it is essential that banks report to RBI complete
information about frauds and the follow-up action taken thereon. Banks may,
therefore, adopt the reporting system for frauds.

Case 3
Two banks were duped of Rs 25 crore .The banks were the Pune based Janata
Sahakari Bank and the Mumbai base Centurion Bank. They had discounted bills
under letter of credit that were issued by good
Trustworthy nationalized banks. The fraudster produced some attractive looking
(letter of credit) and follows Up by presenting bills of exchange drawn under
them supported by faked evidence of trade transaction. The Banks fell for bait
and discounted the bill. Dealing in bills under LC, is generally considered to be
safe because Payment is guarantee by the LC issuing bank, so long as the bills
are drawn according to the provision of LC. It Was only when the matured bill
was presented to for reimbursement by the negotiating bank to the bank that

efficient system of internal controls and that adequate internal control measures
are put in place to safeguard the assets the banks against theft. Misuse of
improper disbursements , ensure that all accounts are reliable and accurate. A
good internal organisation should be put in place by banks. This will ensure that
proper delegation exists, duties and job, are clearly divided and that job do not
overlap. Similarly, staff members should not have unlimited access to sensitive
machined and instruments like cheques, and official stamp. Data security should
be ensuring at all Times. The banks however, should make it a point to take
good care of their staff through fringe benefits and Incentives job at the bank
should be constantly rotated, so that no staffs stays in one position for too long.
Banks Management must also know their staff thoroughly well including their
background and antecedence. Banks should also know their customer very well
and proper documentation must be kept on all customers. Activities In the cash
area in banks must be monitored on a massive scale through the illustration of a
close circuit television the bank manager should ensure that qualitative
technique of control is practiced. Techniques such as constant inspections,
security control, enhance remuneration, reassignment of staff, penalties, and
fraud detecting equipments. Banks education seminar, electronic monitoring
equipments and use of adequate supervision of document accounts.
