Fraud Eats Strategy Braving Brazil - Operating in the Latin America's Largest Economy in Uncertain TimesBrazil is a wild and wondrous country. The people are passionate, the celebrations spectacular and the history is rich. There’s a reason Brazil is Latin America’s largest economy. But investing and doing business in Brazil is fraught with rapidly changing, multi-faceted risks. Before 2014, there had been zero prosecutions under the country’s anti-bribery and corruption laws. Then the Lava Jato / Operation Car Wash investigation exploded on the scene and 280 people were convicted of having violated the Brazil Clean Companies Act. Amongst the people charged and 3 convicted in Lava Jato were former President Luiz Inacio...

Fraud Eats Strategy The Rise of Whistleblowing and Retaliation Across Latin AmericaIt is fair to say that whistleblowing across Latin America has caught on. In fact, according to NAVEX’s 2025 Regional Whistleblowing & Incident Management Benchmark Report, a median of 2.97 out of each 100 employees submitted whistleblower reports last year. While that may not seem high, it is the highest region by far in NAVEX’s study when compared to the global median of 1.57 or the lowest of the four regions studied, Europe at .67. Does a higher volume of reports suggest a willingness to come forward without fear of retaliation or is it something else? The NAVEX report breaks down whistle...

Fraud Eats Strategy Do High Performers Pose Greater Risk?So as we approach year end, many organizations are conducting performance evaluations and are allocating the bonus pool accordingly. And during the performance review process, low performers garner a lot of negative attention as you might expect. Indeed, one of the more widely recognized red flags in efforts to identify fraud risk is that of a disenfranchised employee, often a subset of the low performer pool. But what if I told you that the opposite may be true and it's high performers who pose a disproportionate amount of organizational risk?

Fraud Eats Strategy The Crypto Cringe - Why People Still Avoid Crypto CurrencyI think for a lot of us, when we think about crypto, it still makes us cringe a little bit. And the question and the topic of today's episode is, should it still make us cringe? Whether you're a fan or you're shying away from it, the crypto ecosystem is expanding rapidly. Part of what is causing many to spurn crypto is due to reputational issues. These include the prevalence of crypto-themed fraud, and vulnerability to hacking, which make many retail investors uncomfortable and are keeping some people away. And at the same time, crypto adoption is...

Fraud Eats Strategy Blacklisted Banks and Foreign Terrorist Organizations: Still Want to Invest in Mexico?Mexico is a critically important trading partner with the U.S. Together with China and Canada, the three account for 36.5% of all U.S. imports and 32.1% of all U.S. exports amounting to over $1 trillion of trade each year. And yet, Mexico is always a challenging country in which to do business. The gap became the wealthiest and the poorest is enormous. Violent crime and gun violence is extremely prevalent. Government and police corruption is widespread, and Mexico is amongst the largest global producers of cocaine, heroin and Fentanyl. In addition to being a narcotics source country, because it bor...

Fraud Eats Strategy Monitorships and Leniency Agreements in Latin AmericaPetrobras, Braskem, Odebrecht, Stericycle and other U.S. style compliance and regulatory actions continue to be more commonplace across Latin America in the past decade. Indeed, there has been a tectonic shift in the implementation of leading industry compliance program overhauls following significant investigations and prosecutions. Some of those matters have included the use of legal tools such as monitorships and deferred prosecution agreements. While organizations on the receiving end of what is sometimes referred to in Latin America as a “leniency agreement” and/or the imposition of a compliance monitor may not welcome these measures or the...

Fraud Eats Strategy After the Fraud: Recovering Losses in an Insurance ClaimLosses from a major financial crime can have a long term, negative impact on an organization. The odds of recovering those losses are not great. In fact, many fraudsters embark on their criminal path because of the financial wreckage that is their personal lives. Divorces, job losses, health crises and addictions often cause otherwise decent, law-abiding people to lose their minds, become desperate and commit fraud. Fraudsters who committed crimes because of crushing debt don’t usually represent an attractive option when it comes time to seek financial recovery. Third parties sometimes do. The most reliable avenue for financial recov...

Fraud Eats Strategy Avoiding Trial by Fire: A Primer on Crisis Communications“It's better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than open it and remove all doubt”.

That all changed in October of 2023 when Deputy Attorney General Lisa O. Monaco announced the implementation of DOJ’s Safe Harbor Policy for voluntary self-disclosures made in connection with Mergers and Acquisitions.

Fraud Eats Strategy Human Trafficking is Everyone’s Problem: Steps that Organizations Can Take to Disrupt Human TraffickingHuman trafficking is the fastest-growing transnational crime with more than 25 million people held in forced labor and sexual exploitation. As if these numbers aren't horrifying enough, 10 million of those trafficked people are children, and yet rarely are US organizations focused on human trafficking's impact on their operations, much less society as a whole. In fact, most of us consider human trafficking to be a problem occurring in developing countries and that there are more pressing issues that should demand our attention and compliance resources. That false narrative is part of what makes human trafficking so difficult to counter.

Fraud Eats Strategy Raising the Board's Compliance IQ: Meeting Increased Compliance ExpectationsBeginning in November 2012 with the publication of A Resource Guide to the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (commonly referred to as the FCPA Resource Guide), the U.S. Department of Justice and the Securities Exchange Commission have regularly been publishing useful and informative guidance on the elements of effective compliance programs and the Department and the Commission’s expectations.

Fraud Eats Strategy The Achilles Heel of FCPA Compliance: Bribe-Paying Third PartiesRarely do we hear or read about the names of third-party bribe payers or the names of their companies. Global companies, particularly those who ship products internationally or rely on third-parties in other ways to bring their products and services to market, are heavily reliant on virtual armies of third-party intermediaries to operate internationally. They are a necessary evil who can act on an organization’s behalf, represent them in the marketplace and potentially trigger significant liability under the FCPA, sanctions or anti-money laundering laws.

Fraud Eats Strategy How Transparent is the Corporate Transparency ActOn April 3rd, 2016, information about 214,488 offshore companies established by Panamanian law firm Mossack Fonseca was leaked. Since the Panama Papers leak, a total of 81 jurisdictions worldwide have passed laws requiring beneficial ownership to be registered with a government authority. The U.S. Government has been openly critical of countries that act as money laundering safe havens and yet we were not taking any steps toward transparency. That changed on January 1, 2021 when both houses of Congress passed the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2021, which includes the Corporate Transparency Act (the Act). The Act requires a report be filed wit...

Fraud Eats Strategy From Systemically Corrupt to Above Reproach: Examining Siemens' Remarkable TurnaroundIn 2006, Germany-based Siemens was ranked 22nd on the Global Fortune 500 with revenues of $100 billion. It was a global leader and one of the world’s most admired companies. Until November 16, 2006 when the Munich Police Department raided Siemens corporate offices and several subsidiaries based on whistleblower allegations of bribery and misuse of funds. This Munich Police Department investigation triggered a global corruption investigation which revealed that Siemens had methodically violated U.S., German and other global anti-bribery laws for decades. When the settlement of the case was announced in 2008, law enforcement didn’t pull any punches. Yet what is equally remarkable...

Fraud Eats Strategy The Third Line: The Critical Role of Internal Audit in Cyber DefenseCybersecurity is at the top of most organizations’ list of critical risks and is often cited by C-suite executives and Board Members as their gravest concern. Threats that are this complex and amorphous require strong partnerships including the inside of the organization. At first glance, cybersecurity and internal audit would seem to have very little in common or little need to interact with one another. Indeed, that is probably still the case in many organizations. Our guests today however have taken a different approach. For more information visit: https://whitecollarforensic.com/
