Fraud

9 MAR

Fraud occurs when someone acts in a dishonest way so that they receive a benefit or someone else experiences a loss. Over half the allegations of fraud within charities have related to the conduct and activities of senior and entrusted members, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), directors (those on the governing body) and financial officers (such as the treasurer). Although fraud can be committed by any staff member (paid or volunteer) or any other person who has responsibility within the organisation.
