Forensic
auditing covers two complex areas; Internal
Fraud Investigation and Litigation
Support, for private as well as public entities. Applying
specific techniques for the determination of indicators and trends
(red flags), such as interviews and document analysis, we can obtain
proof of the occurrence or the potentiality of fraud.
The examination
and evaluation of facts and evidence, as well as the possibility
of offering expert testimony in a court of law, serves as an invaluable
support to professional attorneys that must litigate these cases.
Compliance
auditing has as its objective to evaluate the existence and efficiency
of implemented controls. It is a critical issue in order to meet
the legal and regulatory requirements. If employees or third parties
involved in the organization commit a crime and it is demonstrated
that the firm did not implement an efficient compliance program
to avoid or minimize the possibility of occurrence, severe economic
sanctions may be applied, as well as civil or criminal penalties
which could implicate the Directors or Managers.
Our practice

adherence in meeting or exceeding local regulations and international
standards. It assesses and designs formal compliance programs, and
monitors and evaluates their application.
