First look at Occupational Fraud 2024: A Report to the Nations

Since the first Report to the Nation was published in 1996, the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE) has surveyed thousands of Certified Fraud Examiners (CFEs) about the methods, costs and effects of occupational fraud. Now in its 13th edition, the Occupational Fraud 2024: A Report to the Nations provides an inside look at how fraud is committed, detected and prevented in organizations around the world. The data contained in this report can help fraud examiners benchmark their fraud risk management programs and implement necessary controls to prevent or minimize losses.

“What makes the Report to the Nations so valuable is that it was built on the information provided by the CFEs who fight fraud every day,” says ACFE CEO John Warren, J.D., CFE, and co-founder of the report. “It’s because of their shared case findings that we can create this tremendous resource.”

While the full report launches later this month, here’s your first look at the findings from the world’s most trusted report on the global state of occupational fraud.
