Fraud and Corporate Misconduct Watch
Managing fraud risks arising from Key Performance Indicators
Financial Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are essential metrics used by management, investors, regulators, and creditors to evaluate an organisation’s financial health and performance. They guide strategic decisions, maximise value, and support corporate social responsibility initiatives.
Why it matters?

In this article, you’ll learn how to:
