Fraud Prevention Training for Managers

Fraud can be committed against an individual, company or its customers. It is both a crime itself and a predicate offence to money laundering.

Any funds generated by fraud are the proceeds of crime and handling them exposes your company to the risk of money laundering.

Our Fraud Prevention Training for Managers Course teaches your managers how to identify and prevent fraud in your company by understanding the triggers and early warning indicators.

We also have a Fraud Prevention Course for all staff.
