DEFENDING AGAINST FRAUD

Every organization can expect to lose at least one percent of its top line to fraud. In many industries, losses approach ten percent and more. However, any organization can train its personnel to recognize symptoms of problems early, thereby thwarting unethical behavior before it causes irreparable harm.

Langlinais Fraud & Audit Advisory, LLC, helps organizations safeguard their assets, the most important of which are their people. Our techniques and workshops promote healthy environments, where strong controls reduce unnecessary losses without subverting trust or disrupting regular operations. Ethical business improves the bottom line!
