Asset misappropriation fraud happens when people who are entrusted to manage the assets of an organisation steal from it.
Asset misappropriation fraud involves third parties or employees in an organisation who abuse their position to steal from it through fraudulent activity. It can also be known as insider fraud.
This type of fraud can be committed by company directors, or its employees, or anyone else entrusted to hold and manage the assets and interests of an organisation.
Typically, the assets stolen are cash or cash equivalents, such as credit notes or vouchers. However, the fraud can extend to include company data or intellectual property.
At one end of the scale, asset misappropriation fraud may be limited to isolated cases of expense fiddling or an employee lying about his or her qualifications to get a job.
At the other end, it might involve organised crime groups infiltrating organisations to take advantage of weak processes and inadequate internal systems and controls.
The definition of asset misappropriation fraud doesn’t include straight theft from an organisation by insiders, such as stealing stationery or other physical assets.
Ultimately, it’s the cash flow of the business that suffers.
If they’re not tackled, opportunistic one-off frauds can become systemic and spread throughout an organisation, creating a culture of theft and fraud. When this happens, fraudsters think their actions are acceptable and fail to make the distinction between company funds and their own funds.
Apart from the direct impact of lost funds, asset misappropriation fraud can also impact on an organisation’s staff morale and reputation.
