fraud-risk-assessment

Conduct a structured fraud risk assessment by combining Fraud Triangle theory and ACFE Fraud Tree classification to evaluate red flags, control effectiveness, and generate a risk scoring matrix aligned with SOX and COSO requirements.

The ACFE Fraud Tree classifies potential corporate fraud types and causes during an assessment, mapping them against red flags across personal, organizational, and transaction levels to prioritize investigation.

Identify red flags for pre-M&A screening by analyzing signals across personal, organizational, and transaction levels, then translating those findings into control evaluations and risk scoring matrices.

Yes, you can apply this fraud risk assessment to whistleblower-triggered investigations and anomaly-driven control reviews by generating structured red-flag analysis and saving the report to a defined case path.

The best way to evaluate internal control effectiveness is to map controls against identified fraud risks using the Fraud Triangle, translating findings into prevention and detection improvements within a structured report.
