Over one third of all engineering & construction companies worldwide are victims of serious economic crimes *. Although the theft of assets might be regarded as an accepted risk of doing business in this industry, instances of financial misrepresentation and corruption are pervasive as well. Moreover, these "white collar" crimes can be much more serious.
And while the economic cost resulting from white collar crimes can be expensive, far more serious is the impact on your reputation and on your share price. These days, one instance of "fiddling the books" or "easing a transaction" can be enough to destroy your business.
