FAQ: Corporate Fraud Investigations
Signs, approach and evidence-gathering when fraud is suspected within your organisation.
What are the signs of corporate fraud?
Signs include unexplained financial discrepancies, accounting irregularities, sudden behavioural or lifestyle changes in an employee, or suspected corruption or conflicts of interest. It's often a combination of signals that prompts an investigation.
How do I start a corporate fraud investigation without alerting the suspect?
Discretion comes first: we start with an orientation discussion and determine together with you which investigative steps are appropriate, so the employee or party involved notices nothing until you decide otherwise.
Can you investigate digital forensic traces?
Yes, where needed we combine digital source research with surveillance and document research to map financial discrepancies and fraud patterns.
What happens if the fraud is confirmed?
You receive an objective, substantiated report you can use with HR, your legal counsel, or in a possible police report or dismissal procedure. The final legal steps are determined together with your lawyer.
Is a corporate fraud investigation GDPR-compliant?
Yes, provided it's carried out proportionately by a licensed bureau with a legitimate interest. We document the basis for the investigation as part of the case file.
