How to Detect and Manage Fraud in EU Funded Projects

European Anti-Fraud Circle of Events successful

The dividing lines between fraud and irregularities are thin and not so easy to detect. There is also less feedback from national investigation bodies in suspicious cases. Managing and Audit Authorities would like to know more about the proceeding and results after they reported their suspected cases in terms of Fraud. These are two essential insights of the first European Anti-Fraud Seminar November 2010 in Berlin.

While the first event in this circle focused on prevention of fraud, the second Seminar concentrates on detecting fraud at earlier stage, to develop a vigorous approach in respect to anti-fraud measures and to enhance overall effectiveness in the field of fraud prevention. It focuses especially on the differences between irregularities and fraud with a special workshop. Following questions will be answered:

• How to prepare an exhaustive fraud audit strategy?
• What is the right procedure for reporting irregularities and fraud?
• How to strengthen the control activities for fraud detection?
• What are the implications in case of fraud?
• How to differentiate fraud from irregularity?
• How to avoid irregularities in public procurement procedures of EU Funded Projects?

The complete European Anti Fraud circle of events will participants provide with assistance on how to prevent, detect and combat fraud in the field of public procurement procedures of the EU funded projects. They will learn how to develop an efficient fraud audit strategy and how to monitor and control EU funded projects.

Date of Event: 21.-22.February 2011, Berlin
