Fraud and organized crime in companies: models and red flags

Michael Slim International
November 20
2:00 PM - 3:00 PM
Online

 

 

(Event is in CET - Central European Time)

 

In this workshop, the main differences between internal fraud and fraud or crimes committed by organized crime will be presented. The latter are sometimes confused and only a rigorous methodological approach through the use of specific investigative methods can help the investigator and the internal auditor in the prevention and management of such cases. In the current socio-economic context, the infiltration of organized crime into companies represents a possible threat with considerable negative effects such as reputational damage, compromise of relationships with stakeholders and economic damage for the entire organization. Organized crime can also be intercepted thanks to the presence of other crimes such as embezzlement, financial fraud, money laundering, etc. In this context, the internal auditor has a significant role. In fact, he or she must be able to understand the types of fraud and carry out targeted investigations.

Internal Auditor and the new GIAS: a strategic role in the prevention of fraud

ACFE Italy Chapter #115 / AIIA
November 21
11:30 AM - 1:00 PM
Virtual (CET-Central European Time).

 

(Event is in CET - Central European Time.)

 

The new Standards of Internal Audit increase their focus on fraud prevention and detection. Internal Auditors are now requested to develop fraud related competencies and to consider fraud risks when assessing the nature of the services to be provided, as well as the challenges specific to the individual assignments. Therefore, the Chief Internal Auditor must cover the fraud risk in the internal audit plan and proactively discuss this topic with the Senior Management and the Board of Directors, as to make sure that the risk appetite of the organization is not exceeded. Speakers will present their views about these changes which dramatically increase the role of Internal Audit in preventing fraud.

 

Key Takeaways:

  • Communication with the stakeholders: What should Senior Management, Board and Directors and Internal Audit tell each other when they speak about fraud?
  • Audit Plan: To what extent are the frauds predictable and how disruptive are they for the time schedule and the prioritization of the Internal Auditors' activities on field?
  • Competence: What should Internal Auditors start learning to become more effective in the fight against fraud? How can the emerging new technologies help them?

Anti-Fraud Coffee Talk Session (Seeing the Unseen Enemies: Crucial Role of Whistleblowers in Detecting and Preventing Cyber Fraud)

Institute of Compliance Professional Indonesia
November 22
3:30 PM - 5:30 PM
Virtual by Zoom

 

 

(Event is in Western Indonesian Time)

 

Technology can indeed be a valuable asset to enhance transparency and accountability – ultimately building public trust. Unfortunately, technology is neither inherently good nor bad; neither it is inherently helpful nor harmful. Being merely a tool, its existence has also given birth to an avalanche of cybercrime cases across different countries – breaking through all jurisdictional borders around the world – that are significantly damaging to numerous victims and spurring confusion and distrust among the public. Being virtually like an unseen enemy floating in the air, cyber criminals are notoriously difficult to track or pin down. Their secrecy is almost always guaranteed by the technology itself that might be originally intended to promote transparency. Since the role of Whistle-blowers has been popularly acknowledged as one of the most effective fraud detection methods, its crucial role in pushing cybersecurity forward must be given more attention and further discussed. Moreover, good-faith whistle-blowers are usually in precarious positions extremely vulnerable to fears, pressures, and even various reprisals. Therefore, how good-faith whistle-blowers are able to strip off the secrecy of cyber criminals, and yet how they are also able to be sufficiently protected when doing so, should indeed become important topics discussed among fraud fighters around the world.

 

In this Coffee Talk session, we will discuss:

  • Recent Cyber Fraud Cases
  • Role of Whistleblowers in Cybersecurity
  • Challenges in Protecting Good-Faith Whistleblowers
  • Practical Strategies in Preventing and Detecting Cyber Fraud
  • Practices in Establishing an Ethical Whistleblowing System 

 

Welcoming Speech by: Antonius Alijoyo – Principal of Center for Risk Management and Sustainability

Coffee Talk Session With:

  • Esther Roseline – Affiliate Expert and Consultant of Institute of Compliance Professional Indonesia
  • Goutama Bachtiar – IT Advisory Director of Grant Thornton Indonesia

Date: November 22nd, 2024

Time: 15.30 – 17.30 pm (Western Indonesian Time)
