IMF Academy – ACFE authorized training organization

IMF Academy is an ACFE authorized training organization and the exclusive provider of CFE (Certified Fraud Examiner) trainings in the Benelux.

Organizations lose an estimated 5% of their annual revenues to fraud

With organizations losing an estimated 5% of their annual revenues to fraud, the need for a strong anti-fraud attitude and a proactive, comprehensive approach to combating fraud is clear. As organizations increase their focus on risk, they should take the opportunity to consider, enact and improve measures to detect, deter and prevent fraud. Unfortunately, many risk management professionals tend to underestimate the role of fraud in the scope of their professional duties. This training will explain how organizations can integrate anti-fraud initiatives into their risk management programs to:

  • Identify, assess and manage fraud risks from all sources
  • Support fraud risk management initiatives by establishing an anti-fraud culture and promoting fraud awareness through the organization
  • Develop a system of internal controls to address the entity's fraud risks
  • Address and respond to any identified instances of fraud
