Fraud Risk Management
There will always be a fraud.
Fraud is endemic in the human race. Wherever there are human
activities, there will be fraud.
The ethical culture must start at the top — everyone in the organization from the CEO down must be seen as honest and responsible in all facets of their day-to-day.
A good place to start is by having
a code of conduct that establishes ethical policies and procedures.
The conviction for running this
FRM program is in the firm belief that at some point there will be
a tipping point and whatever
is deemed prohibited must
be addressed by people who
have a very clear idea of what
is right and wrong.
