CFE
PROFILE |
|
A
Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE) is a specialist in the detection
and/or deterrence of a wide variety of fraudulent conduct -- from
discovering employees or executives who misappropriate company assets to
assisting investors who are defrauded in the course of commercial
transactions. CFE's can be found working as: captain's of industry,
accountants, auditors, attorneys, security/loss prevention administrators,
investigators, academicians, and law enforcement officials (municipal,
state and federal)
Certified Fraud Examiners are
employed by most major corporations and governmental agencies in the
United States and throughout the world. CFE's are charged with
investigating a wide variety of allegations of fraud as either in-house
agents or as external consultants. CFE's are also utilized in the private
sector, where they provide investigative and consulting services to law
firms, business enterprises, and others in the areas of litigation
support, fraud investigation, and fraud prevention.
All CFE's must meet the rigorous criteria
for admission to the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners. For
