Skill Overview

Preventing Fraud is now a legal requirement for many businesses. Fraud though, poses a significant and growing threat to businesses of all sizes, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that may lack extensive resources to combat sophisticated scams.

This CPD-certified course provides a comprehensive introduction to the nature of business fraud, the latest UK legislation including the Fraud Act 2006 and the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act (ECCTA), and practical strategies to prevent and detect fraud within your organisation.

Through real-world examples, risk assessment tools, and policy guidance, you will learn how to build a strong anti-fraud culture and implement effective controls tailored to your business needs.
