The Anti-Financial Crime Compendium is a collaborative collection of volumes across the full financial crime landscape. The volumes are designed to be conversational and provide an inter-connected network of insights that only seasoned professionals would know. The contributing authors are all experts within their respective domains and share their end-to-end practical tips, tools and tricks.
In this volume we discuss the Best Practices for Effective Fraud Investigation Interviews:
Think about the number of different types of people that we could meet with during an investigation, including management, witnesses, business partners, clients, vendors, prosecutors, investigating officers, banks, etc. We meet with these people with the intent to obtain information and assistance with our investigation.
When we talk about forensic interviewing, we naturally think about the traditional interviewing of investigation subjects. It goes without saying that subject-based interviews are some of the most important that we will have. We can, however, not discount the contributions all of the other interactions. We need, therefore, to optimize every meeting to obtain the best investigation outcome that we can. One manner to achieve this, is to treat every interaction in a fraud investigation, as an interview. That statement turns the traditional view of interviewing on its head.
Interviewing is the most important skill that we require as fraud investigators, as it touches every stage of our investigation. Interviewing is also, more than the pure sequencing of questions. It is also about understanding the dynamics of interviews, the reasons for people responses as well as how to prepare for and to respond to these occurrences.
This volume encapsulates some of the most important skills that you will require as an investigator.
