Fraud Risk Management

Our fraud management services enable real-time identification and detection of fraud and misuse at an enterprise level and guard organisations against increasingly sophisticated fraud risks. We support organisations in their efforts to manage fraud holistically - prevention, detection and response. Developing a fraud management capability not only helps our clients to proactively manage fraud and respond more effectively to fraud incidents but also improves the overall effectiveness and efficiency of their business.

Market Misconduct

Market misconduct can take many shapes, from false trading, insider trading, to the disclosure of information about prohibited transactions, and other similar actions where market interference results in undue profits. The global regulatory focus on market misconduct is evolving and institutions are increasingly expected to demonstrate how they manage market abuse and misconduct. With our business, technology and regulatory advisors, we help our clients in designing, implementing, and maintaining the right conduct risk programme.

Sanctions

Achieving compliance for Sanctions is a complex process. Regulations frequently cary across separate juisdictions and their requirements can evolve with limited regulatory guidance. Deloitte has unparalleled experience in this area, having designed, reviewed, enhanced, implemented and monitored numerous financial sanctions, detection and compliance programmes for clients around the world. Our Sanctions programme includes technology and alert assessments, conduct investigations, lookbacks, alert dispositions and testing.
