Whistleblowing in SMEs

IN their “Report To The Nations 2020 Global Study on Occupational Fraud and Abuse”, the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE) noted that 43% of the “schemes” from over 2,000 cases surveyed were reportedly detected through a “tip”.

This shows that having a whistleblowing (WB) channel is useful for any organisation in the investigation of fraud, corruption, bribery and misconduct.
