Financial Investigations; the use of Forensic Accounting Techniques and Indirect Methods of Proof

Speaker: Michael Fitzgerald, Fraud Business Solutions

Despite the fact that most crimes are committed for financial gain, little attention is given in forensic literature to the financial motivations behind this criminal behaviour. Particularly with white collar crime, understanding these motivations is often the key to the apprehension and successful prosecution of these individuals. This webinar provides direct instruction on the “how to” aspects of criminal financial investigations, taking attendees through the different approaches used in gathering evidence and demonstrating how to prepare and present circumstantial evidence to a judge or jury in a simple and convincing manner.

  • Offers the practical application of forensic accounting techniques for civil and criminal action and internal auditing and security
  • Demonstrates the legal requirements, tools and procedures used to conduct a criminal financial investigation
  • Stresses the importance of understanding and using circumstantial evidence to secure a conviction
