CPAs and Others Performing Fraud Consulting Services
Combating fraud and reestablishing public confidence are of paramount importance to the U.S. economy. CPAs provide litigation-related consulting services involving fraud and may be called upon to act as consultants, expert witnesses, or both. The CPA's functions are varied and also may include consulting services regarding fraud prevention, deterrence, and detection programs, as well as investigation of alleged or suspected fraudulent activity. Because of regulatory requirements and the fact that fraud schemes have become more sophisticated and complex, practitioners must develop new skills to meet today's challenges.
