- 2. Criminal Psychology & Fraud Investigation: CSI CERTIFICATION Masterclass Introduction It will happen when you least expect it. There will always be allegation of fraud and employee misdemeanour. This is a perennial truth. The question that needs to be ad-dressed is how do we go about managing such allegations. In recent years, a variety of laws and regulations have emerged in Singapore and Ma-laysia, providing organizations with an array of criteria to incorporate into their antifraud efforts. But for all practical purpose there is no law on managing fraud allegation. In the wake of high-profile corporate scandals as well as new regulations worldwide, many business leaders are increasingly aware of the need to create company-specific antifraud measures to address internal corporate fraud and employee misconduct. While acknowledging that no single approach to fraud risk management can fit ev-ery organizations needs, this seminar focus on key practices that organizations have generally found to be effective when tailoring a company-specific fraud allegation investigation program and offers a strategic approach to aligning corporate values with employees performance. The Federal Bureau of Investigation, financial institutions and merchants are always on the lookout for scam artists. One of the most common and unregulated industry where fraud is most prevalent and perpetrated on a daily basis is in the area of Management Consultancy. Almost every unemployed and unemployable individual calls themselves Management CONsultants. The truth be told, most of these CONsultants will not be able to withstand any form of close scrutiny. Protect your organization from frausters. Attend this program and we will tell you more. The technique to know whether you have been a victim is to examine the deliverables. Look at the concepts closely. If they cannot even get the fundamentals right, you know that it is a CONsultancy firm. IMPORTANT NOTICE. This program is not to uncover the fraudster as some organizer claim they can do. It is to uncover the fraud and identify the fraudster. To say that the seminar teaches you to uncover the fraud perpetrator proves a lack of grip on the subject matter and an exceedingly poor command of English. That is why you have to exercise great discernment when you are attending a Fraud Investigation seminar. Some are fakers. Some are makers. You decide for yourself. In this seminar, we’ll also look at some common sources of fraud, & a number of fraud in-vestigation & prevention tips you can use to keep yourself safe from marauding tricksters. Why attend this program? • This program is align with the ACFE Certification requirements in the Fraud Investigation paper. • Better appreciate that management of Fraud Investigation needs to be integrated in the overall governance of risk: reward. • Achieve greater business agility by developing a collaborative approach to understanding financial risk. • Understand the options for the provision of Fraud Risk Management and make the right selection. • Develop a business minded team and fraud investigation business people. • Ensure delivery of quality and valued Fraud Investigation services which are cost effective. ■ Who Should Attend • Anyone interested in learning how to manage the allegation of fraud, fraud prevention & fraud investigation • Forward looking Managers and Executives to better equip themselves with the changing corporate landscape • Risk Managers • Compliance officers • HR Managers • Internal Auditors and Independent / External Auditors / Accountants • General Managers who like to acquire specific knowledge Some of world’s leading government linked companies, banks & financial institutions staff trained by Tommy : • Malaysian Airport Holdings Bhd • The Government Investment Corporation of Singapore • The Stock Exchange of Singapore • Deutsche Bank (participants from 40 countries) • Westpac Banking Corp • Monetary Authority of Singapore (Central Bank) • United Overseas Bank (UOB) • BNP Paribas • Bank of China (China-wide) • Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank • OCBC Ltd • Bank Negara Malaysia • MayBank • Bank Islam • TNB • Philip Morris • Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas • Bursa Malaysia • Securities Commission Malaysia • UMW • F&N • and many more...
