Conducting Internal Investigations: Planning and Logisticsgerry Zack, CFe, Cpa, Cia, CCepPresident, Zack P.C.lEvEl: IntERMEDIAtE

What do you do in those first critical hours after discovering an allegation of fraud? Are you prepared with formally devel-oped investigative protocols? Can you stop the fraud in progress without alerting the perpetrator? Do you have a response team in place and if so, how do you prioritise the work so ongoing investigations run in parallel and not sequence? Do you know who your internal experts are and where external expertise can be obtained when, and if, needed? Lastly, how do you manage this project for effectiveness and efficiency? These are some of the issues, decisions and problems fraud examiners face in the first few hours of every allegation of fraud. In this session hear an experienced investigator discuss how to avoid the traps and pitfalls that can derail an investigation by proactively planning ahead in advance.
