A forensic accountant is a financial version of a detective — knowledgeable in fraud management and business processes to detect misconduct.
Because of the detail of work involved, the skills of the average accountant are often inadequate for uncovering the detail behind a possible corruption case — what happened, how it happened, and who was behind it.
Forensic accounting is a process conducted by a certified forensic investigator, combining accounting knowledge with investigating skills while supervising corporate accounts. It is an area of accounting where the accountant investigates cases of fraud or embezzlement, analyses the financial information on hand, and uses it in the legal proceedings that follow.
A forensic accountant's duties include: expert witness and dispute advisory, alternative dispute resolution, fraud investigations, anti-money laundering, licensing management, litigation support, fraud risk management, data analytics, and regulatory compliance.
