to detect financial fraud

Complex Frauds
Auditors often fail to detect financial fraud in companies they are auditing because the
perpetrators have concealed the fraud well in a complex manner.
 What are the components that make a fraud complex?
 What role does collusion play in complex frauds?
 Research the internet and find an example of a complex financial fraud and
discuss the fraud act, how it was concealed, and what benefit was obtained by
the perpetrator.
