As companies expand globally, outsource business operations and add new IT systems, they become more vulnerable to fraud, according to a report from Kroll. The latest Kroll Global Fraud Report highlights the growing danger of supply chain fraud to businesses worldwide. Large companies have increasingly become ‘extended enterprises’ as they have globalized, outsourced, re-engineered their business processes, brought business partners and vendors closer and specialised their functions. The result makes them more complex and leaves them vulnerable to an array of frauds ranging from simple theft, to the misrepresentation of inventory to fool investors, through to counterfeiting, grey market diversion and piracy.
