No business owner wants to imagine that their employees may be stealing from them. Still, statistics show it happens daily and that small businesses are the most vulnerable. It is estimated that 75 percent of all theft goes undetected.

Fraud prevention & detection

One thing is constant ... fraud is always a surprise. Our clients say, “We never saw it happening.” Solid internal controls, implemented and followed correctly, are the best deterrent to fraud.
