The Federal Bureau of Investigations released its latest financial crimes report and in this report they noted that corporate fraud is on of its “highest priorities” and it is on the rise. Key amongst these concerns was false accounting, fraudulently inflated assets, insider trading and kickbacks. If this has become an issue so large that the FBI has deemed it a high priority shouldn’t you be concerned that this may affect your business dealings or possible business acquisitions?
