CRI\u00ae Group is once again a proud supporter of\u00a0International Fraud Awareness Week<\/a>, Nov. 11-17, 2018. This global movement aims to minimise the impact of fraud by promoting anti-fraud awareness and education. Companies lose an estimated 5% of their revenue annually due to fraud (ACFE Report to the Nations, 2018) and additional training, prevention programs and best practices are needed to help bring that number down.<\/span><\/p>\n A few more “Fraud Facts” help illustrate some statistics in the fight against fraud and corruption (Source: ACFE Report to the Nations, 2018).<\/span><\/p>\n Zafar Anjum, founder and CEO of CRI\u00ae Group, said that International Fraud Awareness Week (called Fraud Week, for short) is an important effort to put a spotlight on fraud and help educate people about its perils.<\/span><\/p>\n “CRI\u00ae Group has been a proud supporter of Fraud Week for past years”, Anjum said. “It’s an important time to urge organisations of all shapes and sizes to conduct proper due diligence and minimise risk.

That’s why Fraud Week is a great time to reflect on CRI\u00ae Group’s recent efforts in the fight against fraud and to also look ahead to activities on the near horizon.<\/span><\/p>\n Here are just a few of the highlights:<\/span><\/p>\n At CRI\u00ae Group, we recognised the need for an independent certification body for ISO 37001: Anti-Bribery Management System.
