Corporate Fraud Investigation
At Frenkels Forensics, fraud investigations are central to our forensic accountancy practice. The forensic accountants in our corporate fraud investigation team are leaders in their field, with a proven track record of swiftly unravelling complex transactions and getting to the bottom of a corporate fraud matter.
What Is Corporate Fraud?
Generally speaking, fraud is deceptive behaviour through which a person intends to gain a dishonest advantage over others. Corporate fraud is a fraud that takes place within a business, whether by the company itself or by an individual in their capacity as an employee.
An example of corporate fraud is the altering of a company’s financial records to inflate its profits and disguise its shortcomings, such as failed deals, reduced sales, or large expenses.
What Is A Corporate Fraud Investigation?
Corporate fraud can be difficult to prevent and challenging to identify. The perpetrators are often sophisticated businesspeople, sometimes working alongside other stakeholders to create and cover up elaborate schemes. Accordingly, most corporate fraud investigations are carried out by forensic accountants with specific expertise in the area, like us.
When our forensic accountants undertake a corporate fraud investigation, our aims are to uncover the fraud, identify the perpetrators, and mitigate the business’s losses resulting from the fraudulent behaviour. This process involves identifying and locating crucial evidence, such as financial records, bank accounts, and company filings, and thoroughly analysing the evidence to determine the nature and extent of the fraud.
Why Choose Us To Undertake A Corporate Fraud Investigation?
Our corporate fraud investigation team are frequently approached by solicitors, barristers, businesses, and individuals throughout the UK to undertake corporate fraud investigations to support disciplinary action or legal proceedings. Our work also equips our clients with the information they require to identify the weaknesses in their systems that enabled the fraud to occur in the first place and put the appropriate measures in place to reduce the likelihood of fraud arising in the future.
Our specialist team goes above and beyond to add real value to our clients’ matters by offering the following:

Marc and his team use state-of-the-art technology to identify and analyse vast amounts of data from a variety of sources, including databases, financial records, and communications.

Clients comment how our forensic accountants achieved the ‘near impossible’ and praise our ‘outstanding contribution’.
• Commitment To Moving Forward
The nature of fraud is constantly evolving, and so are we. Fraud is becoming increasingly complex and more difficult to detect, and the methods used in a corporate fraud investigation must meet the challenges this presents.
At Frenkels Forensics, our practice never stands still. Instead, we move forward, embracing new methodologies and cutting-edge technologies to ensure the sophistication of any corporate fraud investigation we carry out more than matches that of the fraud itself.
