Fraud is more common than you think. In fact, it is estimated that 5% of revenue is lost to fraud each year. As technology advances, fraudsters are becoming more sophisticated.

Join us for an exclusive lunch where we will provide our subject matter expert insights into the current, emerging and topical trends that you need to know to help you mitigate the fraud risks in your business.

This luncheon will be an informal discussion where the principles of Chatham House rules apply, allowing for a candid and open exchange of ideas with a commitment to confidentiality.

Our team will provide valuable insights on:

  • A Fraudster Persona typology, adapted from the Commonwealth Fraud Prevention Centre, is a useful tool for fraud and corruption risk assessments, as well as for investigations and forensic reviews.
  • Whistleblowing: 43% of frauds are detected by tips, which is three times more as the next common method. We will guide you through significant global and local developments in legislative compliance, best practices for whistleblower welfare, and program effectiveness indicators for both company whistleblower requirements and public sector public interest disclosures.
  • Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Fraud: We will discuss how AI can be used by fraudsters for bad but also how you can improve efficiencies and prevent and detect fraud using AI.
  • Australia’s updated / revised Foreign Bribery laws: If your business has any presence overseas these changes will likely apply with major penalties for non-compliance. We will provide you with the key information you need to know and what it means to you.
  • Better practice of Fraud and Corruption (Control) and Investigations: We will look at The Australian Standard on Fraud and Corruption Control (AS 8001:2021).  In addition, we will explore what is the latest and greatest in investigation better practice including from the Australasian Association of Workplace Investigators (AAWI) on guiding principles for conducting workplace investigations.

We look forward to your company!
