Detecting Fraud -- An Auditing Issue

Abstract: This 6 page report discusses the essential value of detecting fraud through the use of an internal audit. Because any organization, regardless of size, mission, or purpose faces the potential of fraud, it is a highly volatile issue. The fraud is often the result of a willful redirection of funds by a dishonest employee. It can also be the result of bad management with the ultimate result of a perpetration of fraud upon customers or within the organization itself. An internal auditor seeking out fraud faces issues dealing with accountability, fiduciary responsibility and, in many cases, illegal activity. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
