From Incident to Insight: Using Root Cause Analysis to Prevent Repeat Fraud

Description

Fraud investigators excel at uncovering the “what” and “how” of misconduct, tracing transactions, building evidence trails and proving intent. But too often, investigations end with case closure rather than organizational change. The same control failures that allowed one fraud to occur frequently leave the door open for future schemes.
 
This webinar reframes the investigator’s role as not only solving fraud but preventing it. You will learn how to conduct effective root cause analysis during and after fraud investigations, collaborate with compliance and risk teams, and recommend practical remediation strategies that close the loop between discovery and prevention.

Prerequisites

Participants should have prior experience conducting fraud investigations.

You Will Learn How To:

Discern how investigators can extend their role from fraud detection to fraud prevention techniques.

Identify systemic vulnerabilities across people, processes and technology.

Implement structured root cause analysis methods.

Recognize the connection between enabling conditions and the occurrence of fraudulent schemes.

Recommend practical remediation strategies to prevent future fraudulent schemes.
