Fraud and Integrity Risk Advisory
We design robust forensic governance architectures and anti-fraud control frameworks to identify operational vulnerabilities, prevent asset misappropriation, and secure corporate integrity.
When to engage us
The firm is engaged when a board of directors or an audit committee suspects corporate revenue leakage, seeks to evaluate the operating effectiveness of its Internal Financial Controls (IFC), establishes statutory whistleblower mechanisms, or requires structural third-party vendor risk assessments.
The blind spot
“What happens when regulators or a whistleblower finally expose fraud or bribery that your current controls failed to prevent?”
We design enterprise-wide fraud risk management and integrity programs that keep your board, management, and business protected. ↓
What is covered
Scope of the engagement
- We conduct comprehensive Fraud Risk Assessments (FRAs) across core operational cycles, including procurement-to-pay, order-to-cash, and payroll, to identify inherent risk factors and formulate tailored anti-fraud response playbooks .

- We execute Process Vulnerability Studies (PVS) to evaluate vendor onboarding protocols, third-party relationships, inventory supply chains, and revenue discount schemes to mitigate asset misappropriation and conflict-of-interest risks .
- We design robust whistleblower policies and ethical codes of conduct that align with statutory governance obligations, including compliance requirements under the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 .

How we work
Methodology and process
01
Operational Diagnostics and Cycle Mapping:
We analyse specific transaction flows, financial reporting paths, and operational cycles to isolate functional segments susceptible to leakage, bypass, or data manipulation.
02
Vulnerability and Control Testing:
We review the design and operating effectiveness of existing Internal Financial Controls (IFC), conducting stakeholder walkthroughs and substantive testing across high-risk transactional workflows.
03
Risk Quantifying and Register Formulation:
We construct a customised fraud risk register, scoring identified processing gaps based on financial balance sheet impact and historical likelihood of occurrence.
04
Governance Framework Architecture:
We draft institutional anti-fraud policies, regulatory compliance governance structures, and whistleblower protection rules to embed clear operational safeguards into the corporate architecture.
05
Triage and Investigation Enablement:
We deliver clear, step-by-step compliance standard operating procedures that enable the audit committee to handle, investigate, escalate, and record incoming complaints independently and confidentially.
06
Continuous Monitoring and Control Remediation:
We establish post-assessment tracking metrics and oversight tools to ensure that modified internal controls remain completely resilient against subsequent circumvention attempts.
