For an unknown reason the banks are hesitant to appoint the external parties for preventing, detecting and investigating the frauds. They believe more in their internal audit teams for investigation of the frauds. Though this may be the subject of criticism we respect the decision of the bankers and in order to equip the vigilance departments of the Nationalized and Co-operative banks we have launched this course on Bank Forensic Accounting which is probably the first of its own kind.
Co-operative bank failures have led to a growing awareness of the need for accounting and finance professionals to acquire skills to identify and act upon indicators of poor corporate governance, mismanagement, fraud and other unethical behavior.
accounting and finance education focused on transactions and how they were recorded and interpreted. It is now necessary to identify the underlying characteristics of these transactions, including potentially unethical or fraudulent behavior.
The Certification in Bank Forensic Accounting builds on the skills acquired in the Graduate Certificate by introducing a global/international focus and specialized areas including banking, police, transnational fraud, financial terrorism and eCommerce.

On completion of the course students will gain the forensic skills to:

Identify indicators of fraudulent activities
Undertake forensic analysis and assessment of risk factors
Predict/anticipate fraud

Analytical skills will involve:

Investigative methods
Analysis of financial information
Systems methodology for investigation
Statistical techniques
