“Overall, it’s easier and less expensive to prevent corporate fraud than to repair your finances and reputation once fraud has been committed,” said Michael Cichy, Palette Software, “With the proper controls and technology in place, an organization can effectively reduce the chances of fraud occurring and minimize the losses from fraud that have already occurred.”
