Fraud Schemes Under COVID-19 & Anti-Fraud Actions

On September 9, Ines Liu, International Business Advisory Manager, will be discussing how a crisis such as the Covid-19 pandemic increases the risk of fraud and what businesses can do to protect themselves. 

While the spread of COVID-19 has slowed down and the situation appears to be stabilizing in different regions around the world, many companies continue to face significant operational, financial, and strategic challenges. As countries restart their economies, businesses need to evaluate the risk of infection and effectively manage their liquidity to survive this difficult period.

A survey of fraud experts conducted by the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE) in 2009 suggested that intense financial pressures result in an increase of fraud during economic crisis. In the era of COVID-19, when employees are troubled by travel restrictions and working-from-home (WFH) is the new normal, multinational companies (MNCs) in China are finding themselves particularly exposed to the risk of fraud. It is thus more critical than ever for MNCs to assess possible fraudulent risks within their organization in order to see through fraudsters' schemes in advance.

Join Ines as she discusses how such times of economic turmoil are when most businesses become vulnerable to acts of fraud. Bingna Guo, Partner at White & Case will also join this webinar and share a few real cases from a law firm perspective.
