Fraud Risk Management

Overview

The ACFE/COSO Fraud Risk Management Guide (FRMG) was published in 2016 (and updated in 2023).  It has quickly gained acceptance as the set of best practices for preventing, detecting, and thus deterring fraud. The fraud landscape is constantly changing and evolving. The FRMG sets out a rigorous set of principles and leading practices for managing fraud risk for forward-thinking organizations to follow.  It covers:

• How to establish fraud risk management governance.
• How to conduct rigorous fraud risk assessments.
• How to design and implement fraud control activities.
• How to establish reporting mechanisms and investigative procedures.
