Small to medium-sized companies often fail to address fraud-related risks adequately. Often, organizations lack the resources needed to mitigate this risk. In other cases, owners or senior management underestimate the scope of the issue. Regardless of size, all organizations must be aware of the risks associated with intentional fraud. We'll explore why fraud occurs, examining defalcations often used against smaller entities. Then, review measures that organizations can implement to increase security and stop fraud.

Learning Objectives

• Identify reasons that employees and others who are internal to an organization choose to undertake fraudulent acts
• Recall the factors that make smaller organizations attractive to those considering fraud
• Identify specific internal control measures that can help to reduce fraud activities executed against smaller and medium-sized companies
