Program content
Fighting financial crime is not an optional activity. Recent attention by both regulators and the press has highlighted the need for business leaders to be proactive in combating financial crime. Even more worrying is the increasing number of cases where directors, officers and senior managers of organisations are being held personally liable for both direct and consequential losses incurred as a result of fraud.
In this seminar series entitled Implementing a Comprehensive Anti-Financial Crime Strategy, Peter examines leading edge thinking on how to combat financial crime and maximise revenues.
In the eighth seminar, Peter examines the issue of organisational culture. Every organisation that is serious about combating fraud recognises that it requires a combination of strategies that encompass prevention, detection and cultural change. But achieving real and lasting cultural change eludes many organisations because motivation, good and bad, is poorly understood or else not reflected in the strategy.
