Cybercrime

The current fraud environment in the Czech Republic

While being statistically insignificant in the past, cybercrime has emerged as one of the top types of economic crime and is now in fourth place in the Czech Republic (13%). While this is below the average for Central & Eastern Europe (“CEE”) (18%) and globally (23%), we may well see its rise in years to come. 30% of Czech organisations believe their organisation will likely face cybercrime in the following 12 months; together with bribery and corruption and insider trading the highest percentage among all types of fraud.
