Fraud and Integrity

Cases of fraud almost always cause an organisation to suffer financial damage. But fraud also causes reputational damage. In a case of possible fraud, an adequate response and providing clarity is therefore essential.

Investigations into fraud and integrity

Integis conducts investigations into, among other things, fraudulent property transactions, conflicts of interest, vague expenditure declarations, abuse of company resources and suspicious cash flows.  

Cases of fraud almost always cause an organisation to suffer financial damage. But a case of fraud or an integrity violation also causes reputational damage, after which it is usually difficult to restore the broken trust and damaged reputation. In addition, fraud often results in emotional damage to employees. In a case of possible fraud, an adequate response and providing clarity is therefore essential.

A fraud or integrity investigation provides insight into all facts and circumstances and into the role of the parties involved. Such an investigation identifies the nature and extent of the fraud. The results enable the affected organisation to determine the appropriate follow-up actions. These may include measures against the fraudster, but also actions to prevent fraud in the future.

The investigation report can be submitted in a legal procedure.

Fraud prevention

We have conducted investigations into various forms of fraud for years. As a result, we have extensive knowledge of possible fraud risks. We are happy to share that knowledge with you.

Integis advises organisations and guides them in taking measures to prevent fraud. For instance, we analyse processes and procedures for susceptibility to fraud and we provide support in drawing up a contingency plan if fraud is discovered.

We also offer workshops and (dilemma) training to make employees more aware of ethical behaviour and possible fraud (risks).

Other investigations

In our fraud and integrity investigations, we identify facts and the applicable framework; for example, codes of conduct and (legal)guidelines. But we also conduct 'factual investigations', in which we only draw up a report of facts and circumstances and do not assess whether there has been behaviour that doesn't comply with the applicable framework.

Our factual investigations focus, for example, on a sales or tender process that has been unclear. We also conduct investigations into the accuracy, completeness and timeliness of information provided to, for example, shareholders or a supervisory board.

'Niet knoeien met fraude'

We notice that organisations often do not know how to deal with a (possible) case of fraud. To prepare organisations for a possible case of fraud, we have written the publication 'Niet knoeien met fraude'. It is a publication with practical advice.
